Hi
My sincere thanks for the many kind folks who took the time for offer me
some encouraging words and helpful suggestions on handling work
celebrations and food! I probably should have included in my original
post that I do not suffer intestinal symptoms so I have to be
particularly diligent at the sight of some goodies. Good suggestions
regarding keeping my own snack at work or bringing something special
with me if I know there is to be a celebration that day or even exiting
the situation when appropriate!

Thanks again...your supportive words really helped!
