[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 872315, member: 88961"] Arab Horse - Surely life is a game of compromise. Is eating separate meals not harming your overall relationship with your husband? I am fortunate that MrB agreed we would eat basically the same meals after I was diagnosed, so we have both made compromises, and sometimes we will share the sam emeal, but our plates look quite different; with my plate focusing on veggies and his having a greater proportion of other elements, including carbs. At the outset, when we were planning how I was going to tackle my D, we agreed we would modify our diet, but if that wsn't enough, I might be forced to get my head around some form of meds. There's no mistaking I would have been very disappointed to have to resort to medication, and that would have impacted on other areas of my life, but it was a potential compromise we agreed in as a Plan B to preserving our overall life and lifestyle. Maybe you're coming close to that hard thinking place again, where acceptance of something to widen your enjoyment of your life would win over the "luxury" of controlling this by what seems to me (as I read your posts) a life of burdensome deprivation.
