Thanksgiving, FODMAPS??????…. Confessions of a foodaholic.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Remember to give thanks, hug and say I love you to those around you. This Thanksgiving I am feeling a little out of control. I think it is because I normally cook and this year I’m not. I will let you know how my Thanksgiving goes and if I make the right food choices.

Thanksgiving…. Confessions of a foodaholic.

It is nearly impossible to follow a strict diet and stick to it. How many of you don’t make the right food choices on purpose especially during the holidays? We are all human, right? I know I have caved every now and again. My weakness on Thanksgiving would be the pumpkin pie. Although, I have to say I love everything about Thanksgiving. I don’t think there is one food that I dislike on Thanksgiving.  So, that being said….I have caved on occasion. It may be my fave the pumpkin pie…minus the crust this year.

FODMAPs are tough. There are not many food choices when first starting out and it can be overwhelming. That being said if you look at the overall picture of the foods and break it down it is doable. If you check out my previous post 

Surviving a FODMAP Friendly Thanksgiving or any other dinner engagement.

A guide to making better choices

I did list some foods that you can eat on this diet. There is even a recipe for a FODMAP friendly pie crust although it might be too late to make that now. That is o.k. Christmas is coming so you can prepare for that.

Somehow, though this year, I think I am going to be good. Being away from home is not a good time to be a cheater to begin with. We all know the repercussions of that. There are already challenges of making the right choices of foods and then there are no guarantees. So, “I have enough on my plate.” sort to speak.

Have a good one and loosen your belt. I will be back to let you know if I made the right choices or not. :) Gobble, Gobble.
