its good to recognise these things Fiona. I do believe, its the glitches that make our steps stronger. The experience of it all

I love Allisons suggestions, the one I adopt is the decaf at pudding time. My other strategy is journal review every day..... not time consuming or effort, just that awareness ……. to make sure everything is as I like it and no justa crept by, or a covert got at me.

I must admit that I have an easier time I think, because I have a savoury tooth and not sweet. So I love choosing a starter or something off the add on mains for a starter if theres nothing suitable. And I will order extra broccoli and parmesan or something with mains so I have lots

my absolute fave, and with understanding pals at the Indian I have a starter at pudding time. Because everyone else doesn't want starters and I prefer them, I do an upside down dinner

the other thing I remember doing,,,,,,, several times was thinking oh, step six. I must probably be cured. Lets try it out to see if I can handle it. The results were absolutely predictable ( and in the strangest way, reassuring)

.

Because of RR I understand why which is so helpful and motivating.

Love that, Fiona
