How does it feel when out with frieds

[make33 2]

I keep up with the chatter and at the same time, am eating ve-e-r-r-r-y-y slowly, sometimes even just moving my food around on my plate with my fork/spoon. That way it gives the look and noises that I'm really eating, when all I'm doing is talking and miming eating.

I always make sure that I time my finishing with everyone else's and it works out perfectly.

Although YOU know there's something different, people who know (you've had surgery) 'forget' when you act totally normally. :thumbup:

I dont feel any different around friends. I'm very social and drink beer often. I'm sure if I didn't drink beer I would lose more weight.

I have gotten good at sort of towering my food, as in piling a couple of bits of meat etc on top of each other. That way my plate looks like it has empty spaces on it. And honestly most of the time people don't even notice what you are eating.
