    Hints to cope with a working lunch...Please!!

    Hi all
    On Monday I am on a work away day, very nicely being held at Souhwark Cathedral. Lunch is provided and seen as an opportunity to develop relationships across the teams. We will have a task to complete over lunch.
    I work in the mental health/psychiatry field so not your normal bunch!! I really do not want my colleagues to know what I am doing and yet I do not want to come off Lipotrim for one lunch. If I was going to do that it would have to be a romantic dinner with my husband!
    I really am stuck with how to manage this. It has been on my mind so thought I'd ask if you have any suggestions.
    Thanks

    Hmm... how about saying you have a dodgy tummy and don't want to risk upsetting it further?

    Alternatively just say you're not too hungry and have a small piece of protein...

    Good luck whatever you decide!

    dodgy tummy sounds good, and believable as I am on the toilet so much!! Also my husband has a tummy bug at the moment.

    Thanks

    There you go, perfect excuse... you could say you got a stomach bug from hubby! And of course all the loo trips due to water make it even more believable!

    Good luck with the lunch. You could have a plate with a little on it and push it to one side and if anyone asks just say you have a bug! I went to a barbeque in the summer where only the family knew what I was doing and I put food on a plate then the children took a bit as they passed! They loved the slyness of it and no-one sussed what was going on!

    Small shaker cup with your shake or a bar won't hurt? Could say it is a protein bar or shake, loads of peeps use these as meal replacements nowadays...don't they?

    I'm raising money for St. Peter's Hospice by running the Bristol 10km, the Bristol Marathon and my own indoor rowing marathon...

    I am also running the Race for Life in Bristol on June 14th...All is in memory of my mother who died of colon cancer in 2004 and of course to help those who now need treatment, etc.

    HI everyone
    Thanks for all your help. I DID IT!!!!
    Loads of sandwiches and cakes were brought out. I excused myself, went to the toilet, which was quite a way away. Popped outside, had a shake. Returned to a different table. I did not need to say a word! All that anxiety about nothing.
    Thanks for your help though!
    14 days done with no cheating!!! So pleased with myself!
