OT: More from Mexico
Wednesday was a much better day. I took the advice that many people gave and just had a little bit of down time. Because this is a study trip we are pretty scheduled in and finding time away from all people is difficult.
Last night I had the challenge of going out to eat at a very nice restaurant and not being able to use my normal restaurant skills (like asking for a box when I order). It was the first time that I had really gone out with people who didn´t have a concept of WLS. I felt at some times that people were watching how much I was eating- and had to have a translator explain to the waiter that I thought the food was delicious, but my stomach could n´t hold the full plate. Our professor was with us so there was much less icky behavior!!
My goal for today is to keep my chin up and do the best that I can with the challenges that the day will surely bring!
