Greetings my Best Buddies,
Happy Sunday! I am feeling like a Warrior today.
Last night, my dear husband and I went to a movie and then dinner. We had NO treats or popcorn at the theater, and I pre-planned dinner so I could log everything and still stay within my RDI.
I felt really happy to have control over food rather than allowing food to have control over me!
Prednisone will end tomorrow; but the antibiotics will continue...I dearly hope I can maintain a downward trend for August.
Words of the Week:
"I will never, never, never give up. I will be a pillar of bad-ass calm!"
I am dedicated, determined and diligent.

So nice you have an evening out. And, you should notice a difference once you are off the Prednisone. That stuff is just plain horrible!

@Glen~! It was my husband who helped at the theater - I asked him for help before we left the house and he just chose not to buy any for himself...a good guy!

Good for you, have a nice evening.

So you just identified one effective way that works for you in managing 'social settings' -- enlisting the support of others in advance!

I want to go to the Movies right now,, but I am afraid to as Once I smell the popcorn,, its all over I have ot have some ! Its really quite a weakness

I admit I succumb to popcorn. But when I tested several times and it didn't affect my blood sugar I was good to go! It does give me a short gain in weight, but I put enough salt on mine to kill a cow and drink a lot of fluid. Dr says I need more salt so I take advantage of that. The gain drops after a couple of days. I'm so happy I can still partake of my popcorn, but just can't do it everyday!

Wow, wonderful job!! Not easy to bypass the special treats that come with night out :) Yay the prednisone is done, hopefully it will make loss easier for you!

I 'sneak in' some jerky in my sock (covered by my pant leg) and/or string cheese in the other...
