Liquid Diet in Public

How do you discretely hide your liquid diet? I have a sit-down bridal shower luncheon to attend and I'm not sure how to hide that I'm not eating or drinking. Not really ready to be open and honest with 40 guests.

Feign a crappy tummy ache?


I had soup or broth if I wanted something. If people asked, I would just tell them that I was dieting as they would definitely notice that I had lost weight after surgery. If I didn't want to eat anything, I would just eat before, and say I wasn't hungry. No big deal.

I wonder why people cant simply say " they are not hungry" Anymore? I used to actually force myself to eat at social gathererings even when I was not hungry because thats just what you do lol. If saying that is too uncomfy how about " sorry i have a case of gastroenteritis if i eat it will give me the shits we dont want that at a wedding" Goodluck
