I have developed an extraordinary super power, since going HFLC. I have discovered that I can fully taste (flavor & mouth feel) any food I think of. This is an incredibly helpful super power. It means that I don't have to actually eat anything to enjoy it. And I can join in the convivial conversations that always surround treats and sweets. I'm not isolated from the rest of the group, merely because I don't actually put the food into my mouth.
Just this morning a coworker brought in a box of donuts. I enjoyed discussing the merits of one flavor over another, and shared my preference for my favorite donut, the cinnamon twists. Since I could taste them with my super power and discuss the flavor and texture with my co-workers, I didn't feel deprived or left out. And they didn't feel rejected.
Of course, everybody who knows me knows about my super power, and I think they envy me a bit. Does anybody else here have a super power (like mine or otherwise)?
