Yeah, I was the only overweight person there. The entire time people were talking about these initiatives and I wanted to contribute more but I felt like I shouldn’t since I was the fat one in the room. Ironically, I probably spend more time thinking about weight loss and researching it than anyone else in the room. I was delighted to see that the snacks provided were pretty healthy. You’d be surprised how many places that have health agendas serve crappy food. Now, that’s ironic.
I didn’t have any snacks at the meeting because I had a delicious breakfast. I started with some of Ashley’s pumpkin bread.
and some Mix 1
I had a working lunch, thank goodness it was with people that know about the blog! No funny looks! I was starving so I started with a small piece of bread.
I ordered a portabella sandwich for lunch and it came with a choice of fries, coleslaw, potato salad and cottage cheese. I REALLY wanted the fries. But I got the cottage cheese. Go me!
I didn’t eat much of this. I did finish the sandwich. Boy it was good (although totally messy. Probably not work appropriate.
For dinner we had Salt & Pepper Chicken again (click on the the words Salt&Pepper for the recipe).
we paired it with some sweet potato risotto.
I finished the plate with sweet potato chips.
tasty!
Do you ever feel like your weight makes you stick out in a crowd? How do you handle it?
