Oh, my friend, I read your post and unfortunately, related COMPLETELY with it. My problem has been my husband’s traveling. I’m fine when he’s home, feeling like the cuisine conquerer, but usually the first night of his business trip I taste, this and try just a bit of that and before I know it my BG is 400 and I can’t get it back down. It’s almost like an out-of-body experience, I see this woman eating this food and I’m screaming, don’t eat THAT! But, she sticks it right in her mouth anyways! AAAGH
The only solution I’ve come up with for eating at parties, etc. I talk to the host/hostess ahead of time and let them know that I’m dying to try this new recipe (or 2). . I bring my own food, they feel like they’re getting a treat and I don’t feel so left out.
Hopefully someone will come up with a plan to tame that woman that eats the food in my house! ha ha Until then, we keep holding each other up and pushing forward. I also do like your comment of: it’s a new day however and all I can do is pick myself back up on that saddle after getting knocked down. That’s it Sir, Knight! The jousting match is not quite over. . get back up there, and attack again! Good luck!
