When your body says no
One 'advantage' of surgery is that my body cannot tolerate certain foods. Since surgery, I have been eating low carb, less gluten, less milk, and less sugar. This is partly to lose/maintain weight, but it is also because I get nauseous and sick if I eat too much of these. Unfortunately, I can eat it some, before I get sick. Case in point: This past weekend, we had a lot of things going on. We had a Girl Scout event, a church picnic, and another event. Two of these events involved food. Good food. Comfort food that I love. Foods that I haven't had for a long time. I'm sure you can see where I am going with this. Now, the Girl Scout event had food, but since it was a huge event, the food was limited. So, I really didn't eat too poorly while there. They just didn't have a lot of options for me to get myself in trouble. Unfortunately for me, church picnics are of the devil! In my part of the world, a church picnic means potluck and everyone brings their favor...
