First social function

Hi everyone. I had to go to my cousins wedding yesturday. It was a huge wedding, never seen so much food in my life. It was so funny though, you would think that i was at a funeral or something. Everybody was eating and stuffing their faces and all i kept getting the whole time during coctail hour was"oh Lisa Im so sorry, are you ok". All i could do is laugh. The food didnt bother me at all. All i kept thinking was damn if i did not have the surgery i would have gained 20 pounds here today. I didnt get hungry at all it was amazing yet everybody and their mother was apoligizing to me. For the main course i asked the waiter to bring me some chicken broth and some ricotta and mashed potatoes. She looked at me like i was nuts but brought out this beautiful plate ....I had maybe 4 bites and i was done. This surgery is such a life saver for me. Last night made me realize it alot.

OH LISA... isnt this amazing! We eat like ladies now. I so much loved when i came to the realization that i NOW eat normal portions!!! ITs so exciting. YOUR doing so well so early out and im glad to hear! KEEP up the great work, it will just keep getting better and better for you! LISA 310/203/???

Oh that is funny!!! So glad you are doing so well. That was nice of them to find you some things to eat and make it look pretty too. Happy loosing!!! Shannon Arnold 257/???/130's

LisaMarie, Hun I know for me it was great to know that I could be "normal" out at social functions. Well I guess it is not totaly normal yet but we are all learning as we go. It is funny that when we go out to eat, I eat until I am done and have the rest packed up, well I guess they never seem a "fat" person pack things to go before. I mean sometimes you get was it ok? Did you not like it? Funny right... well once I am down to goal I guess they will not look at me funny anymore. Well take care hun and I am glad you had a great time. Debra P
