[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We will soon be vacationing with family. I recently changed my whole lifestyle and I’ve shed a good amount of weight. But I don’t eat like a normal person, especially a normal person who indulges to the max on vacation. I’ve changed my eating completely, and I don’t want to look disordered.

Example: This morning, one of the people going posted about a popular breakfast smorgasbord. Platters of family style breakfast food. My normal breakfast is a couple egg whites and a couple pieces of turkey breakfast sausage, maybe half a bagel if I’ll be particularly active that morning. If I eat this at the breakfast smorgasbord, I’ll surely be judged by my family (most overweight, unhealthy, or just your run of the mill vacation indulgent).

I don’t eat burgers/sandwiches with buns (or I take off the bun), I like dressing on the side, I’m not a huge carb eater. If you’re similar, [b]how do you manage the expectations/judgements of [/b]those you eat with? [/quote]

You can't manage the expectations and judgments of others.  Be prepared to either explain yourself (not recommended) or let them know you don't want to talk about what you're eating if they bring it up.    [/quote]
