    @deepwoodslady your friend doesn't sound like much of a friend. One of the things I realized (and it's a pretty obvious thing to be honest, that I didn't really understand until I had to face it) is that our health depends a lot on the people we surround ourselves with. My former closest friend was a heavy drinker and loved good food. So we spend a lot of our time at happy hours and restaurants. Our friendship ended for unrelated reason, but the impact on my drinking and eating was immediate. I realized how much I ate and drank just to keep up with her.

    If your friend is intentionally sabbatoging you, and it's not a friendship you are willing to let go, find ways to limit your time together to activities that don't lend themselves to eating. Like a walk or something.

    I'm sorry he was such a jerk.

    I agree @deepwoodslady. He will do it again, probably, if you keep doing things the same way. Maybe meet at a public place, so if he had to bring food in, it wouldn't work. If it doesn't work, you may have to cut things out. Personally I would do the phone once in awhile. I have been through enough of that kind of thing. For me I would be wondering what else would he disrespect next??

    @deepwoodslady Donna, I am so proud of you! Mentally jumping up and down cheering!! YAY for standing up for yourself. My first thought was that maybe he isn’t your friend at all. Perhaps Joey didn’t take you seriously but I’m sure you have now made your point. Stick to your guns, girlfriend!
