It definitely has been a weekend. Accepting the fact that I need to lose weight and for real focus on it. If you recall, last week, I was in sort of a slump of Autistic Shutdown and experienced a phase of ordering delivery to my house a lot or getting takeout. This for a person of my size is a recipe for disaster. I need to focus on bettering my food palate so that I can become a healthier person in the long run. For many years as for many of the autistics, we tend to stick to the same foods. This can pose a challenge when sitting down to the tables as a family or with others where everyone is given the same meal. Yes, there has been debate over how this is managed. Some of today\\u2019s moms are doing a 30-day challenge of new foods. It is awesome to see them incorporate new foods into their diet. Yes, it may seem juvenile but as many in the autistic community can relate, we love when our autistics climb milestones, especially when it is something that makes one easier for one that cares for the autistic person.
