    I’ve had no problem eating out at all. Usually order from appetizers or side orders. Tapas places are good too as mostly small plates. Good side affect. Saving lots of money on just ordering appetizers!

    So you can’t ask questions if your newbie or sophomore? Jeez. If your more experienced you should be able to help others & not tell them to go elsewhere. When I get to maintenance I would welcome newer peers to guide & mentor them. I would be excited to help them on the journey I’ve already experienced. That’s just me. Thanks though for answer re my question on stats.

    Yes I’m designated driver too. I usually order from app menu or just side dish if it has Protein. Many times everyone pays for me to offset gas- don’t mean bodily gas as that is discussed a lot from Bariatric family!

    Good to know. I feel you can almost substitute any food with something else. But if I go out for drinks there is no alcohol or carbonated beverages so idea of just drinking Water or Virgin Mary doesn’t cut it.

    salad is one of last food my nutritionist says we should eat. I never order from regular menu anymore. At least at this stage which is 8 weeks out. I order from appetizers or sides. My dinners cost $10-$20. If really want to try something usually friends eating out with offer taste if it’s something I can eat.

    Hi- I had my sleeve 9/23. I experienced great deal of pain after surgery & I normally have high tolerance to pain. One incision in particular hurt for so long. Up to 6 weeks. My Dr & nutritionist said I would probably not feel like myself for 3 months. But I feel fine now. Doesn’t program where you had surgery have people to follow up with? Mine has weekly support groups, access to nutritionist, psychologist & more whenever needed. And also google questions so get wide range of information. Hang in there but would be in touch with your surgeon. Happy Thanksgiving!

    I’m a northerner so gotcha! I’ve had chili several times with no issue. But not until at least 5-6 weeks after surgery. I’m very careful what I eat- how I eat & when I eat. I’m real fearful of getting sick.

    Had sleeve 9/23. I had Constipation Forever! When I did go every 3 days hurt like anything. Got ok to continue with my sugar free Metamucil that I drink every AM. Then for couple of days took full dosage of 3 tablets of stool softener- NOT laxative. Now I take daily dosage of 1 tablet every night. So much better. And of course I‘m now able to add a little vegetables when I eat my Protein. Just remember 1st 3 months toughest. It will get better. You will feel & look better before you know it!
