Thanks again, ladies (and Mr.), as usual, you are all so supportive and encouraging!

The meal was good, but seemed incomplete. I suppose the worst moments were when the girl who organized the lunch said "can you eat anything here? I guess I should have asked you" and then, later, when my meal was served she observed "that is a bit sparse, isn't it?"

I suppose I had other options, but all of them included no sauce and no bread, and no salad (raw veggies are still problematic), if I wanted to be as pure as possible.

And I find it difficult because I think that the servers in the restaurants just think I'm on some nutty diet, because it's not just one thing. I would never eat this carefully if I didn't need to!!

Luckily, I have little trouble avoiding the donuts. And the next big meeting where lunch is coming in, I am organizing - and I found a source of spelt pizza for the three of us in the group to have (if my boss approves of it) - and the rest of the group can have nasty pizza .

After all of my efforts today to go to my RMT "clean", I had the wrong time in my calendar, and missed the appointment. Some days I swear I am just losin' it!

Thanks to posting right away, and knowing you were all there, the pity party passed post haste! I'm feeling okay now, and just trying to decide if a ride to work tomorrow is the right thing to do.

Hugs and butterflies,
