Ideally you should at least try to be “ladylike” on your first few dates. Start off with a salad, even if you’re not a big fan. It will fill you up.
Eat slowly. Take small bites. Don’t scarf down a bunch of bread or chips if they’re placed on the table. Say no to desert. If he orders one anyway, don’t eat all of his.
You need to practice good manners on your dates. Even if nice meals are a novelty, take your time, and close your mouth while chewing.

Sure. Be as big a phony as you can be and then surprise him later when you're your real self.
On these dates have you been paying your own way, or is he on the hook for all of your food? If the latter, I would think that that would be enough of a factor--I would feel really self-conscious for a guy to be paying for me to stuff my face.

In an earlier thread, she said she'd help pay but no way that is happening...
OP that's wayyyyyy too much food. Way. Too. Much. And please don't do that to a date and expect them to pay for all that.
*Wait- in OPs other posts, the date (after that entire night of food) bought an entire cheesecake for her to take home????? C'mon.
Eating food is the last thing on my mind when on a date. Yes, a nice dinner is fine, but eat lightly, use good manners, and don't get too filled up. I have been on some dates with thin, fit women that could out eat me. It was kind of weird, but since it did not effect them, really no big deal.
Depends on the job, no?
Do you think it's necessary to wear a suit to job interviews for every kind of JOB?
And what first impression is being conveyed by eating salad and not dessert?
I typically wear a suit and try to mind my manners, when going on a job interview, unless it’s clear that it’s not that kind of job.
The impression she should should convey is that she wants to lose twenty pounds, as she mentioned in her post. If she scarfs down everything in sight then she’s telling her date that she doesn’t care about her health or the limits of his generousity.
There’s a big difference between showing up in a dirty sweatsuit for an interview and at least putting on a clean shirt and pants, like you would when dealing with the public.
Maybe you’re okay looking like a slob everywhere you go and eating like a pig when on a date, but if you’re trying to convey the message that you’re able to clean yourself up and be slightly brighter and more charming than twenty other candidates, you show you them you can do it.
OP, I'm like you, and good food is really tempting, and if you go into the date hungry, it's hard to say no, when it's all there in front of you, and you've got the smells of all that good food...
Unless you go into the date NOT hungry. ;-)
Before the date, eat something filling enough to take the edge off of your hunger. Maybe some soup, a cheese sandwich, maybe some celery with peanut butter... Something with some healthy fat will help sate your appetite.
So then, when you're at the restaurant, you won't feel the urge to practically Hoover in the food, and you can eat more slowly.
