Since our Thanksgiving plans were cancelled at the last minute I ended up cooking a small dinner with a boneless Turkey breast I already had in the freezer. Barely enough leftovers for a couple of turkey sandwiches that evening.
Friday I headed to the gym then over to Super Target for some sushi. They were selling all their fresh (not frozen) turkeys for .49 a pound plus each had a $3 off coupon stuck to it. I bought a 23 pound turkey for a little over $8.
It took about 5 hours to roast it but I now have lots of white meat turkey for the next few days plus broth and dark meat in the freezer for soup.
Tonight’s meal will be Turkey Enchiladas with whole wheat tortillas and lowfat cheese.
Any other healthy turkey recipes out there?

Had my final BA post op this week. I am healing very quickly. Apparently so well I don’t need another appointment for a year and I am released to full workouts two weeks early. I have to ease back into chest and shoulder exercises (especially push ups). I am also paroled from the 24/7 sports bra sentence. Pics coming soon.

Today is my fourth week of my eight week ban on upper body workouts (mainly chest and some triceps exercises). Yesterday was my first day back after surgery and it was short (about an hour) compared to my usual workouts but very satisfying. I did some warm-up cardio followed by leg presses, leg extensions, step-ups, lunges, and squats. I finished up with 30 minutes on the treadmill on the hill program.
Today will be abs and biceps with more cardio. I will be ready for a break from the code I have been writing.
