Ok so I am having a serious craving for a sonic shake:( sugar free fudge pops aren't doing it for me anymore:( and when I say craving I mean I'm ready for jump in the car and drive there now ugh! It really sucks being 4 1/2 weeks out and still on a liquid diet!

Yes the people around us are allowed to make their own food choices. Of course they are. No-one is saying otherwise.

I just don't think it's too much to ask of someone who loves you to be a little considerate about eating certain foods around us as we heal. I wouldn't have dreamt of eating chocolate around someone who couldn't have it and I hope people would have the same courtesy for me as I do them. Especially if they are loved ones.

I totally agree...at the very least its thoughtless and inconsiderate, at worse its downright cruel! My husband wouldn't do that to me and I wouldn't tolerate it anyway.

But at the end of the day, we are ultimately responsible for our own actions. Including how we allow others to treat us.

When i was on liquids my hubby took the toaster out on our deck to toast his bread! I love the smell of toasted bread.... He also figured out how to cook pizzas and other foods on his grill so he wouldn't smell up the house. AND he ate outside. Yeah, i married on of the 'good' guys. :-)
