I am soooo impressed with you Mamma-gal, you showed so much strength.

For me what would be hard would be the attention we get when we avoid foods the "world" finds healthy...as well the feeling of perhaps insulting the hosts. It's very attention getting to eat the way we do, and I don't know about others, but at this point...for me, the less attention the better! Talk to me when I've lost more, but for now allow me to meld into the woodwork when it comes to my food.

Now you've got me thinking about Thanksgiving dinner today, Nat...I know I'll be eating turkey turkey and uh more turkey. Hoping the veggies won't be covered in anything bad...I know gravy is out, bread...mashed potatoes...hmmmmm....I think I'll make myself dinner before I go...LOL. Hey what's tryptophane?
