Friends, what a joy

I spent some time with some friends today. There were a lot of us that got together and had pancakes with toppings. I chose to put peanut butter (at least I'd get some protein) whipped cream and syrup on my two pancakes. A few hours later were at a couples playing games and enjoying eachothers company when my stomach started to hurt. It was at that moment that I remembered my stomach cramping like that. It has been nice the last three weeks not having my stomach cramp. Hello no cramps, good-bye fun food.
We were at the couples house for long enough that they made us dinner and afterwards the son brought out popsicles for us. Three weeks ago I would have jumped all over it. I turned it down, as did the wife. She is Diabetic. It was nice to not be the only one not to have dessert. I looked at the "nutritional" information on one of them. 26 grams of carbs.! I could not believe it. I am so glad that I turned it down. Yikes!

Way to go, girl! Most people wouldn't attack this issue like you are--but you aren't most people. You find a problem and find way to fix it, no matter how hard. You've done it all your life, and you're doing it again.
