Dancing for Life

It sounds like you have some wonderful family and friends who want you to enjoy their cooking. The fact that they are making it special for you is a suggestion that you have in the past liked what they have made. So of course you dont want to hurt their feelings....that is where the smaller plate and portions come in and yes sometimes even a polite Thankyou but I just ate and by the way did you know that I have started on a new healthy diet plan....then of course you tell them about it....after you tell them about it when they offer you food when you are not hungry or a desert saying it's ok....just remind them that you are serious about your goal and you need them to help you succeed...by the way I just reached my goal of 115 today...
