jmarie 71 Posted May 26, 2013 I'm still on liquids... Memorial day cook out us going to be torture! Suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VSGKirk 855 Posted May 26, 2013 Focus on the social aspect of the cookout. Make each interaction you have a little deeper or meaningful. There is NOTHING at that cookout that is going to taste as good or better than you feeling in control. 3 TerryBelieves, Brenda0928 and Satchel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChristineR 128 Posted May 26, 2013 If you aren't ready to face the food then would it be possible to stay home? I hate to be a negative nancy but if it's a trigger then take care of yourself first. I had my friends bake the Cookies for the teachers and I skipped some pot luck lunches at my husbands work. I just wasn't ready. 1 Satchel reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LipstickLady 25,682 Posted May 26, 2013 Its only a few hours of torture. Carry listerine breath strips (gag) because nothing tastes good after those and/or chew gum. It's only a few hours, you can do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistysj 1,940 Posted May 26, 2013 When I have been craving salty food I have a cup of chicken stock with a little vinegar and hot sauce to make a mild hot&sour. If I crave sweets I have a little glass of fruit juice. Still in the full liquid phase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
