Our meals are always based on what DH's system will tolerate that particular day. We are both diabetic, but his needs much stricter control than mine does. He takes a shot weekly, plus several daily meds. The first couple of days he can suffer gastric/stomach distress. He's also somewhat lactose intolerant, and never quite sure what he can tolerate. Eggs can get him, and pork is off the list, as is anything greasy. He also loves "sticks and twigs" type cereals, and hot cereals. Me, not so much. It's always a guessing game. He suggests something, and I make it, and adjust/alter so I can enjoy it also. Many times he just wants toast or rice pudding, so then I can "go rouge" and make myself whatever. We rarely eat out, but I am active on a couple of committees, and have a group of gals I see often, so I get to eat out at least weekly, so I don't feel like I'm missing anything. Don't miss the daily deciding what to make...I like having that decision made for me.
