Yes, there was going to be a barbecue later in the day, and yes, that’s part of the reason I left. It wasn’t that I couldn’t stand to watch everyone else eating oysters and tri-tip. It wasn’t even that I couldn’t have taken one day away from my menu planner and improvised something else. It was more that this is the first week of the new diet, and I haven’t fully come to terms with how to fit in while eating something different. I’ll figure it out. Next time I’ll know what to take with me, so that I can eat my stuff while others eat theirs. It’ll get easier, I’m sure.
Besides, I’m spending a lot of extra time in the bathroom during this early period of adjustment. If you know what I mean. I think you do. I could write a whole entry about that part of the deal. And I might. One day. |
