Okay, so every friday I have a client who gives me a pie.
Which is insanely bad for me and Definitely not on the TF allow list, but in his culture its rude to refuse food.. so I can't refuse the pie or otherwise i'm going to offend him. God knows how many carbs in a pie, probably a truckload. So refusing the pie is out, because he'll hate me (even if I AM on a diet), and there's no way I can ask for something healthier.. .so how can I work a pie into my friday and still lose weight?
Would excercising on friday afternoon help?... Or trying to reduce my carbs during the rest of the day?... eeep

| Do you have to eat it in front of him? Maybe you could accept it and then throw it away later? If not, why not ask him to start bringing something different? Suggest he bring a chicken salad or something and make that your main meal for the day?

I really like download's approach. Be honest up front and respectful. I thought about saying "oh that looks delicous but I have already eaten. Can I save it for later' Then that way you could give it to someone else without hurting thier feelings. That's an option if you feel you cannot be open and honest with them.

| Cultural or not, I'm sure he doesn't want to force feed you. I know this isn't very pc of me, but.... what about YOUR CULTURE of not wanting to get fat? You can't let a minority belief (that isn't yours) dictate your lifestyle. I'm sure if they are lovely as you say they will understand that Friday can not be Pie Day :O)
