Go see clients. Trying very hard to make things appear normal. Everyone remarks on the amount of weight I have lost. Lisa tells me I should wear clothes that fit better so it won’t show as much. I tell Yama about where we stand. Then Jacquie remarks on my weight loss, and I have to tell her as well. She is amazingly positive and supportive. I do some work, then have lunch with Lisa. I order a bean and lettuce salad and tabbouleh. Size medium. Can eat only half of it. We laugh about it. We have to. This is the new normal, after all.
I go home and prepare mentally for the next day. I cannot eat or drink past midnight until the ultrasound is over.
