Hi Mark,
I saw your June response, so thanks for that!
I just posted for July.
I updated my bookmark for this month's postings. I just need to remember to do that every month!
You'd think I'd get it by now, since I've been a member of MWL for a while!
Yeah, it'll be challenging indeed adhering to MWL while road tripping, so thanks for the support!
On another topic that I'd like to bring up...it isn't purist McDougall nevertheless, I refer people to the documentary on Netflix called, 'The Game Changers,' so they know kind of how I'm eating.
I get tired of trying to explain MWL/McDougall to people I encounter who ALWAYS assume all kinds of annoying presumptions when they see me eat.
Trying to be diplomatic with folks who are overweight, unhealthy and obviously judgmental as they observe me eat, is irritating. I just don't have the patience for that.
I've never been good at diplomacy. Especially, when it's obvious that the very people who are ridiculing me, are the ones who absolutely could benefit from eating the McDougall way!
I could definitely use some diplomacy suggestions about how to deal with those kind of folks!
What I'd really like to say to them is, "Your passion for being a foodie is what's making you fat, and no matter how much exercise or small portioning of fatty food you're doing, isn't going to help you one bit, for getting all that blubber off of you!"
Furthermore, "Instead of telling me that I'm skinny enough and that life is too short for not indulging...
strip off your clothes, stand naked in front of a mirror and while you're looking at that in that mirror, say to yourself what you said to me about, "Life is too short not to indulge in food!"
Yeah, in my mind when I'm dealing with 'others,' that's pretty much what I'm always thinking and would like to say to them out loud!
Of course, I would NEVER do that! Which is why I asked for some diplomatic suggestions when this situation comes up, as it inevitably and without fail, ALWAYS does!
