My meals have been fairly simple. Salad, California Mix veggies, spicy brown rice, potatoes with bbq sauce. I haven't made any air fries in a while, maybe this weekend. I have a food challenge coming up on Saturday. Social functions centered around food are a challenge. I ate SAD last week, so I really need to stay on plan. I will eat before hand, but it is a long day and will end up at an Irish pub. I am guessing they will have some sort of corned beef and cabbage special for St Patrick's day. Even just plain cabbage will be off plan here. I have sort of a plan, but it isn't real solid. I might skip this function.

Oof, St Patrick's Day is a huge deal in my family, so I fully understand your dilemma. Any chance of treating it like a feast day? Let's hang on! We can do this!

I have a friend who says you can start your day over at any time. So if you do slip, you don't have to let it ruin your day. Just start your day over from there! (Or whatever works for you - I just liked the sound of it! )

Doing fairly well (not perfect) is a great place to be - staying out of the pleasure trap AND the ego trap. Thanks for sharing, take care and be well.
