Does anyone else feel wasteful sometimes?

I'm a newbie, but I went out for breakfast and immediately asked for a to-go box. I had 1 poached egg and a tablespoon or 2 of corned beef that I mashed up on the plate and I took the rest to go. Of course the waitress looks at you weirdly, but who cares? I shouldn't have to explain my lifestyle to a stranger anymore than i'd have to explain why I ordered what I ordered to eat. You just gotta do what you gotta do. And when they ask if everything is "ok", you smile and say "Yes, everything's fine, thanks!" I agree with Grim Traveler's post. He put it ever so well. :) Don't worry about cleaning your plate like you used to do because this is a brand new you! :) Good Luck!!! :)
