What type of fish can I eat a semi large portion?

[Iweeny 36]

I am going to a business dinner and want to eat some fish at the dinner.. what fish is light and tasty , I would like to eat a healthy portion.. I don't feel like explaining my self to strangers on why I eat so little. any ideas?

I usually do salmon.. But I think tilapia would be a good choice for a light fish

Salmon tends to be a thicker cut

Tilapia is a thin cut fish and will "look" bigger

And I know where your coming from. I've been out to several functions sometimes it goes off well and other times I've been asked what's going on... When you are at a function with people that you may not know very well. You may not want to have to explain your personal business

The type of fish isn't going to affect the portion size. You're not going to be able to eat more of one kind of fish than another.

Cmon now......Hmmmm, are you eating for yourself or the strangers? The healthy portion is what your sleeve can handle, don't worry about the strangers.

If you eat a large portion and throw up, I don't think your business associates will be positively impressed. Sorry for being so graphic.

It's about the art of looking like your eating it sometimes.

Yes, I just cut up my food & hide it under other things....like the bread, etc. If all else fails just throw your napkin on it when no one is looking...they'd never remove it to see what you ate!

I find it so amusing how far people go to look like they are eating more. It seems odd to me.

I'll tell you, I've been to several lunches with customers & as a customer. Also as a business meeting. Honestly I've never experienced anybody paying any attention to how much anyone else eats (well, maybe if someone were eating for 3 people).

I'd recommend ordering exactly what you'd like, and request your server box 1/2 of your meal before it is brought to the table.

Sorry OTR, but it does happen and it has gotten uncomfortable.. Not every time ! But it has come up. maybe some people get uncomfortable if someone else is not consuming a large amount of food... I don't know...

Oh and maybe they are scared to say anything to you OTR !! I know I am

Why would anybody be afraid of li'l ole me. U use to be a big Teddy Bear, now I can't even claim big. Now you've got me wondering if I come across overly aggressive.

I agree! I really can't get my head around why all the shenangan's some go through, hiding what you eat, the concocted stories about what surgery you had. Any time you have to put that much effort into something to benefit others it is in my opinion unnecessary stress. Oh, Snapper is a very tasty fish.

This hasn't been my experience at all. I can eat maybe 3 bites of a thick cut salmon because it tends to be drier. Tilapia and Swai, I can eat an entire small fillet because it is such a light and flaky fish.

LOL, I try not to waste food but at a wedding recently I just moved the food around so it looked like I had eaten a bit more of it. I was with a group of friends and some know about the surgery so they definitely do watch what and how I eat. It's a little annoying to feel like a science experiment while you're eating.
