I've been feeling like so much has changed in how we handle food and life since DD was formally diagnosed with PA this spring. But, in the interest of looking on the bright side, I've been telling DH that some of these things are luckily not a big change for us. For example, we hardly ever bought stuff at the bakery anyway because it's too expensive, I like to bake, and DH prefers homemade stuff. And I didn't normally put nuts in anything because DH dislikes them. And we rarely ate out before except for McDonald's lunches while out shopping or nice dinners for special occasions (again, too expensive for a regular habit). I cook, so I don't have to learn something new in that regard. And I've always been an over-protective mother by nature. I stay home with the kids and don't like to leave them with other people. Although I don't like having some of our options taken away, some of these things don't change the way we live our life day-to-day. About what things can you say, "No big deal. We did things this way already."?
What hasn\'t changed in your life because of PA?
