This Saturday is my first anniversary with my boyfriend. Eating & having a drink or two together has always been a solid part of our relationship.
He supports me doing LL, & is prepared for me not to be eating over the weekend, but I am very apprehensive about it.
I know it sounds silly not to be able to think of a way to enjoy this sort of occasion without eating drinking, but I can't! We never want to see the same films so the movies is out & that's the only other thing I could come up with. I know it's not ESSENTIAL to go out for a meal, or even have a meal at home in order to celebrate, but the fact is, it's nice to mark the occasion with some sort of special thing.
I am toying with the idea of eating on Saturday night, just steering clear of the carbs so that we can enjoy something together, but I'm not sure. I don't want to say now that I will not eat, & end up stuffing my face, as I know that scenario will make me feel out of control, & may lead to a binge after he has gone home. I feel as though if I decide now that I will have X on Saturday, that it will be controlled & therefore very easy to get back into the foodpacks after only an evening. Or am I just talking myself into silly things?
Any help or advice any of you have would be brilliant.
