LAP-BAND Friendly Food for the Holiday's

So i know not everyone celebrates Thanksgiving and Christmas, but for those of you who do, what types of band friendly food will you be cooking? And what are your tips and tricks for staying on track? This will be my first holiday season with the band. (Got banded oct 2014) i think my will power may be a tad weak :/

I don't do the cooking, we go to relatives ( all good cooks), so I just eat a little of whatevers there and have a little dessert and call it good. My Dr. Said to eat healthy 95 % of the time and not worry about it 5 % of the time. I have a daily battle with sweets, the sweets always win, but Im not interested in other unhealthy foods for the most part ( chips, alcohol, fast food, etc ) so I dont feel bad about the sweets. I think you have to choose your battles wisely, and leave room for a few treats too. Good luck ! Happy Thanksgiving !

Thank you @@pink dahlia! Happy Thanksgiving to you too! My battle this year is i am hosting! All cooking evetything ;)

Well, if you're going to be the "hostess with the mostest " I guess you have to cater to everyone else ! But the nice thing is its only ONE meal, not 10. So I guess I would just enjoy it and not kick yourself for a little bit of overindulgence. Better to do it once and get back on track the next day ! You can do it !! I have faith in you !!!! Happy Thanksgiving !!!!!
