Hiding while dining

Apr 01, 2015

I'm at 353 lbs now. Had my 1 month post op appointment with the doc and he said I was doing well. I asked if I should be losing more and he said no. My stomach no longer spasms as it did the first few weeks when drinking room temperature water. Doc said maybe purified water affected my muscles and intestines? 

Most family doesn't notice my weight loss after nearly 50lbs. I find myself pushing my food around on my plate when dining with others. Noone notices since they are too busy in their own plate, which is great. I traveled recently and had a hard time finding suitable snacks. I ate cheese, fruits and would buy chicken wraps and eat the insides. Doc said take a shake a day as I am unable to get 80g of daily protein. 

I'm irritated by the lack of food choices everywhere. Today during a banquet, there was only a side salad available as the Italian was loaded with carbs. Thankfully, I found comfort in my salad and the unsweetened tea. I fixed a normal plate of crusted parmesen chicken and pasta with salad and gave 90% of it to my hubby. During a flight in 1st class, they served nothing but carb loaded food and sugary drinks. I had to decline and ask for water only.
