I have been on a shake-based VLCD (the most common brand is Optifast, my doc uses something else) for a few weeks and have been dreading visiting family and friends. Went out of town this weekend to help SIL move- lots of pizza and beer flowing, etc. I didn't cheat once! My partner (whose family I was visiting, we are all close) who is my main support wasn't even able to come. I was able to get through it without too much embarrassment, make my meals, and stick to plan! Did not go running as hoping, but moving houses in 90 degree weather counts as exercise in my book! So, definitely a "mini goal," but I know I can now travel and still have a fun and productive time even while on my diet! It's NOT all about the food it seems! (at least not all of the time
)
First time traveling on fasting diet!
