I have to stay on a strictly controlled diet that limits the amount of sugar in one serving of anything I eat to 5g or less. Otherwise I will become so ill and uncomfortable that I will be miserable and have an unbelievably terrible time that will last until the next day. I had a gastric bypass 16 years ago and that also helps by filling me up quickly and prevents overindulging in any kind of food.

Ij invite all my good friends over for dinner and me and my husband prepare a meal and snacks for everyone . We do our best even though we are disabled and we always have a great time. People there help clean up.

It’s hard I just try not to be so excited, scared of it’s scary or try not to laugh so much. I’m pretty much forced to keep myself serious, because I pass out with almost every emotion.
