12 ways to restrict without raising suspicion:

1. Use the vegan/vegetarian/lactose intolerant/etc. excuse.
2. Talk ALOT. Keep asking them questions to divert attention away from you.
3. Tell them you ate a large breakfast/lunch and you’re trying to make up for it by eating light.
4. If they ask if you’re starving yourself, laugh and deny the crap out of it. “You should’ve seen me inhaling those donuts last night. There’s NO WAY I’d be able to starve myself, of all people.”
5. Say you’re on a diet and how you’ve been failing it for the past 3 days. Make sure you complain about how hard it is.
6. Act like you’re OBSESSED with food. Talk about that one dish you’ve been craving from your favorite restaurant. Go into detail. Make them believe you love food more than life. (This one’s the most effective for me).
7. Post pictures of food (that you won’t be eating) on Snapchat.
8. Tell them you ordered a soup/salad because you’re broke and it’s the cheapest thing on the menu.
9. Pretend you’re fasting for religious reasons.
10. If they ask how you lost weight: smaller portions and no eating past 6.
11. When they ask, tell people you weigh 5 or 10 pounds more than your actual weight.
12. If you’re losing weight quickly, wear baggier clothes for a while so they think the weight loss happened gradually.

*obviously different excuses work with different people. These are just some things that work for me personally. As always, stay safe lovelies ❤️
