Everything in moderation

Everything in moderation like above! I do try and do some baking myself (I love baking) and make low sugar (or sugar free if possible) and gluten free treats. But on Christmas Day however I don’t hold back (I do on gluten) I am quite literally a pig in a blanket that day and I’ll happily suffer for it on Boxing Day!

This is my 1st year having to be cognizant of what I eat. I'm the cook, so most of our meals will be foods that I can tolerate🤣 If they have a special request, I'll make me an alternative meal. I'm also thinking about having gluten/sugar free deserts. If it taste good, my family won't be able to tell the difference. I'm also realizing that Halloween may be a little complicated for me. My husband is my accountability partner. I love chocolate, so I'm going to get it out of the house as quick as possible. The kids can keep 10 pieces of candy. The rest will be donated.

Agreed with moderation. Although I follow the same sad, lonely “trick” at work since I also have several allergies; which is don’t eat prior to going, and stuff a little snack in my purse just enough to keep me from passing out until I can get home and binge! Or bring your own tray of treats something you know you won’t react to. Going to party?Keep a drink in your hand so you still look like you’re joining in
