Today is going to be another challenging day for me as we are going out tonight to a birthday party and it's in a pub and they use vegetable oil for cooking (may contain cottonseed). So my challenges today are being careful with what I eat while I'm there as well as just the smells that are going to be around me.
The one thing that I will do before going to the party is to make sure that I have some dinner that is safe for me so that I am not tempted to eat some of the food that I was able to eat before all of these allergies. I find that making sure that I eat before going means that I don't risk the reactions.
I know that I can't avoid everything but having people around me that understand my allergies and know what I can and can't have makes it a bit easier.
Trying to overcome some of these fears is the hardest part of all of this. Today I know it's going to be rough but I will still go and enjoy myself but know that the food has to be avoided.
Will post tomorrow to let you know how the event went and the challenges that I actually faced.
