Therein lies my dilemma. I will not dine with my family and refuse
to eat a beautiful meal made with love in order to be 100% nutritarian.
There has to be a compromise. Can I do this 80% / 20%?
Or 90% / 10%? I think I'm going to have to. Maybe the answer is
to join in but keep my portions small and fill up on salad. I know vegans
who take their own food to dinner parties and family gatherings. That
would have seemed so ant-social bordering on insulting to me not long ago. What is the answer? What do most nutritarians do? Does Dr. Fuhrman dine with SAD proponents? What does he do? Take his own food?
Nine weeks and counting.....I'm still learning and adapting.
