I am sooooo proud of myself, because I made it through my usual labor day meal. grilled smoked sausage(2), hamburger(2), baked beans, cold slaw, potato salad...etc. My brother grilled 1 salmon loin and 1 cod loin " he says if I wanted seconds", also a very good spinach/kale salad. He even brought me my favorite dressing. OPA by lighthouse Greek yogurt feta dill. Desert was a fruit salad(kiwi, strawberry with a small spoonful of whipped cream on top) EVERYTHING ALL HANDMADE, I WAS IN TEARS...lol because I'm usually laughed at for bringing my own foods to family celebrations. Finally the family understands my journey to better health! :)

    Awww that is wonderful!! It took awhile for my family to get on board too. I think I just needed to prove to them that for once I was being for real and it wasn't just a pipe dream I was saving for another day. Once they saw how much it mean't to me and the lengths I was going through to accomplish it, the support rallied around!! I'm happy for you!
