For anyone who relates, how do you handle a day like today? |
Dear Patrick,
I avoid the temptation to eat all the Thanksgiving spread by not attending the family dinner. My taste buds would overwhelm my desire to stay away from the foods I should avoid. I KNOW I would over indulge (be super happy about the taste for the moment) so I found it much easier just to stay home and cook and eat what I want and have NO temptations to which to succumb.
