Anyone out there traveling regularly (every week or every other week) for work? How do you cope with the constant temptation at restaurants? How about meals with clients/colleagues? Will be getting banded on May 15th and expect this will be my hardest issue...any advice?

Plan ahead and use Protein Bars where possible. Try for Breakfast meetings, eggs work well. At restaurants go for appetizers, they are smaller servings. Ask for take out boxes up front, and place all but your allocate portion in the box before you start eating. Do you plan to tell people you are banded? It might make it easier for them to understand.

I'm a road worrior, and I'm getting banded in the morning, and I think about this all the time I think the key is planning. I worry about working Markets and how we eat and how I'm going to have to change.......just plan... you can do it!!!

Thank you both for replying! Protein bars never did satisfy me in the past...but perhaps all that will change with the band? It's so difficult trying to imagine how things will be...everyone seems so different..I guess I'll just have to wait and see :-) CindyA, best of luck to you tomorrow, I'm really looking forward to hearing your story! Are you a driver or a flyer? I fly most of the time and boy, those airplane seats are a great motivator :-)
