THANKSGIVING JUST 1 WEEK AWAY

It is hard to believe that Thanksgiving is just a week away, it just doesn't feel like it should be Thanksgiving yet. Also with Thanksgiving next Thursday it won't be long until Christmas is here as well and I haven't finished my Christmas shopping yet for the first time in years and just in case you don't know Christmas is just 35 days away. The VCU Rams lost to Western Michigan last night 83-67, the Rams actually lead this game by 17 in the first half. The Virginia Cavaliers will return home tonight to face Rider, the Broncos are 2-0 so it won't easy for the Cavaliers to pick up there 2nd win of the year. Well I am going to ride with our new salesman again today, after today I will be heading back to my normal schedule at work. MICKEY

Soybeans These green gems are rich in choline, a compound that blocks fat absorption and breaks down fatty deposits. Add ½ cup edamame to a salad.

Sweet potatoes Trade up to sweet taters. They’re high in fiber, which means no drastic insulin jumps and thus less fat packed onto your hips. Bake a small sweet potato—think of two bars of soap as a portion size—and top with a dollop of lowfat or nonfat cottage cheese.
