Couldn't think how else to phrase it! I will be spending Christmas at my parents' house, and they are very much of the "snacks and meals every 30 minutes" school of thought when it comes to Christmas. In the past I would have been first to the biscuit tin, but now I'll need to make my excuses and I'm not sure what to say that will ward off repeated questioning.
I could say I'm trying to lose weight but then I'll get "But it's Christmas, can't you just have some treats for one day?" Or I could say I'm not hungry, but then I'll be offered something else in another hour or asked if I'm feeling ill.
I know I could always tell them I'm on Mounjaro, but I don't really want to for a variety of reasons. Food and weight is a very complicated and difficult topic around my parents and the things they've said to me over the years about my weight have contributed to my crappy relationship with food. So I'd rather not go into it with them, at least not until I'm a bit nearer my goal.
Does anyone have any cunning tactics planned?
