Wow.. that is absolutely wonderful. 50 lbs in a month!!!!!! No that is not slow at all.. it is fast!!
As far as the eating goes, see if you can order off of the kids menu or the senior menu and if not then you will have leftovers. Get some type of lean protein type of food.. i.e. steak, chicken, whatever you can have at your stage.
When you are stressing, walk, walk walk.. that is about all I can offer there.. or find something constructive to do. Try not to go for the chips or candy. Grab some water and water load so you don't have room for that stuff.. keep a protein bar in your purse if you can have those now. I can't remember the first stages very well.. sorry.
Good luck to you and we hope your Aunt is better soon.
