Thanks, Bilko, I will do that. I do great at home and have figured out work. (We have lunch provided and though we have salad every day, and fresh fruit, we don't always have appropriate meat for me). I made a soup and am having that with my salad.
My problem is eating out! I didn't think we do it a lot, but lately, it seems we have. Tonight is another banquet. My option is not to go (which means I don't spend the evening with my husband) not eat, (how do I do that?) or try and eat around what they have, which is what I will do.
thanks for saying that about my resolve. I sometimes get into the all or nothing thinking. I ate a few french fries last night and am paying for it this am, so don't plan on doing that again. I am keeping a pain and stiffness diary.
