Sorry you didnt do better with eating at the pot luck dinner. I know it can be very frustrating not to immediately bounce back to how you used to be, even a year later. Sometimes you just have to take a deep breath and realize how far you have come. You still will notice more improvements during the next year and the more practice you have eating, the easier it will become. I know its difficult but you really will get there and at next years pot luck, you will be doing so much better!
