so so so nervous, going out to eat with a bunch of people that do not know I am banded! One of these people is a new guy I've been seeing... sigh... this is going to be hard. They are gonna wonder why Im not eating my food, whether I like it, aren't you hungry? did u eat before you came? oh man... I hate going out to eat now...I used to love it, not I hate it... I can't wait for dessert lol I just want chocolate ice cream at this point... Eating has become a chore! wish me luck tonight! Pray I don't have another horrible run to the bathroom... should I eat fish thats flaky tonight?

I felt so nervous the first time I went out to eat with people, too. You know what I discovered? None of them were at all interested in what I was eating or not eating, and nobody noticed anything! I took smaller bites, chewed my food really well (like you, I certainly didn't want to have to make a scene by running to the bathroom!!), and made the whole meal more about conversation and laughter with my friends.

I think a soft steamed or grilled fish would be perfect. Take your time, enjoy your friends, and don't be self-conscious. If you don't make a big thing of it, chances are nobody will notice a thing.

Good luck, and have fun!!
