I loved your example of pizza and agreed with you about how it can raise blood sugar. It was helpful. When I gave an example of depriving oneself of something enjoyable and the psych harm it can cause, that was meant to be helpful too. It was not meant to be a “lecture”. I’m sorry if you took it that way. I SO agree with you that “each has their own journey and their own way to cope”. We all share these experiences in an effort to encourage each other and give hope. Will you keep posting? I hope so.
