Default I am so wrong.
Someone brought a cake to work for my birthday but I told a fabricated story about why I wasn't having any. (I don't let people know about my weight loss endeavors because I don't need the Diet Police after me.) Everyone totally bought it, felt bad for me, went on enjoying their cake and I stayed on plan!! I'd say we are all winners.

I said I was going through extensive allergy testing and I can't have any wheat at all.

I have a hard time lying. I would just say that I am watching what I'm eating. Or that I am watching my sugar intake.

I am really, really private about my eating habits. On the rare occassions when I have said oh I'm limiting this or that people have always said ohhhhh but its just this one time just have a little nibble go on it won't hurt you. Problem is I don't want a nibble I want a big ol' honking piece. And while a nibble may not hurt me, cake is not exactly chock full of vitamins either so it doesn't help anyone either. Anyway, I digress. This time not one person tried to push any on me which I totally appreciate.

Good job! I agree with you, there are people out there all over the place who are diet police or who try to push food on you. It's annoying!

lol...I glanced at your profile and can see why...good attribute!

I'm self conscious about telling people I'm "dieting". I have only been at it a week, so I haven't really been in situations where I have to twist the truth around a bit. Although, last Sunday I was at my nephew's birthday party and while everyone ate cake, hotdogs, chips, chocolate coverered marshmellows,etc, I managed to munch on wieners, cauliflower and broccolli. Nobody asked or took notice, so I was safe...lol.

good call honeybjones! I really hate to tell people I'm dieting too but sometimes I have to. What is gonna be funny is when they ask you your results of allergy testing. One lie leads to another

Oh no worries. I'll just say it all came back fine after all but I felt so good living that way that I will just keep right on doing it.
