For @ms.sss…I have a bunch of swimsuit pics. Bikini and one piece. Here are a couple😊

wow!!!! you look great. LOVE the bikini....

what is it they need? and why can't someone else in the office send? This is why my SX collected all the information and sent it as a pack with a SX date.

Had a great brunch with the Mr. yesterday. didn't get a picture with shoes, but thought they deserved to be acknowledged. @ms.sss Dress from Venus. Then went swimming. My friend too the one picture.

As you all know i'm from the south. I have a pretty good selection of Castiron cookware that's been handed down for generations. (black pot with shrimp spaghetti in it is from my Great-grandma)..., I would guess the age to be between 75-100 years old. My husband loves cooking in them all. So i decided to help start his own collection... Father's day 12qt roaster w/reversible lid, 13" pan for cooking his lasagna, 2.5qt sauce pot and a 1qt. He loved them.

Wow ok. Yes she was wrong to be so rude but damn you gave her more instructions on how to serve you than a manual book on how to build a house! WTF!! Stay home and make your own food if you have so many restrictions.

No she didn't. I do the exact thing. I'm paying for a meal and i want it the way i can eat it. Why should she stay home? She wasn't the one with the bad attitude...... If anyone needed to stay home it was the server.

I am allowed to drink up until I start eating. I drink Water while waiting for my meal. Is your plan no drinking 30 mins before and after?

That has always been the rule i was taught. 30 & 30......

first @HealthyLifeStyle there is no reason you need to defend yourself, you did nothing wrong. I waitressed for 20+ years and no customer deserves a rude server. It's not so hard to Not bring Water to the table, and it's not hard to get a grilled turkey burger, no bun, no mayo add tomato..... It doesn't matter if you are dining in a 5 star or a dang Denny's (just example).... A server should always be courteous.
Next time simply say with a smile, I'm so sorry you are having a terrible day..... when they say they are not..... shake your head and say... what a pity. They will get the point.

another thing...... most places had "add on" for a small amount. My husband and i will share and/or get a steak with scallops on the side..... most of the time there are 2-3 and at half or less than half the cost of ordering alone. I normally cut about 1-2oz of his steak, 1-1.5 scallops, bite of side like baked or Au gratin potatoes. He normally eats the salad.

If you must eat at a fast food place, these are some of my "go too" items:

McD: order just the egg from the mcmuffin, yes you can do that. Or order the sandwich and throw away the muffin. Filet of fish with no bun, or throw it away.

BK: jr bacon burger, no bun

Wendy's: small chili with cheese

tacobell: pinto's w/cheese & a side of meat.

chick fil a: yogurt parfait, side egg, chicken sandwich and throw away the bun, kid 4 piece nugget w/fruit (not fries)

Cane's: i order one strip with one sauce.

Chili's: my go-to is the Soup

that's just a few i can think of

Hello all. I am 9 months out and still have not gone to a restaurant. Mainly because of Covid. Now that it seems to be getting better, I am still very leery about it. I am so afraid of not being able to find something I am able to eat. I know that most places try to accommodate people with special diets, allergies, etc. but I have never done it before, and a little embarrassed also. I am looking for some advice on what other people do when they go out. How do you discreetly order without saying, No butter, no salt, none of this or that without feeling weird about it? I don't want them to think that I am being "too picky" or a pain in the but. Better yet, I am afraid that my order would still have the stuff I can't eat on it and I would not be eating healthy and the way I am used to.

since i've been on this roll-a-coster of life with WLS.... I learned to be a better menu reader. So if i'm headed to a new restaurant, I go on line and pull up their menu and read every item and what's in it. I make my choices ahead of time. I always have a back up item in case they are out of what i want.
Tell the waitress ahead of time to NOT bring you any Water to the table......... At all for you.
Tell her that when she brings out the meal, bring a go box right away. Two reasons, 1, you want to portion out what you WILL be eating onto the plate and boxing up the rest. This will prevent you from feeling the need to over eat. Then place the box on the other end of the table or give to your partner. 2, this will stop people from asking............ Is that all you are going to eat..... and it will stop the waitress asking if your food was ok.... or if there was something wrong with it.

you are such an inspiration............

I was a 31 bmi when I was sleeved. 173lbs, 5'2", today i'm 120-125... 21 bmi

What is SX? LOL

Surgeon or could me surgery

Is there any way to record your sessions with her? I would also have a serious talk with your SX and tell him/her what's going on. Then bust out the recording if necessary. This NUT sounds like a real nut.

Was cleaning out the (very cluttered) basement and unearthed a couple of boxes filled with clothes from my old university days!

Found this gem which used to be my fave clubbing dress back when I had much bigger boobs.

I don’t think I have the balls to wear this out of the house now (its pretty skimpy! Esp from the back), but truth be told, I was feeling all that and TWO bag of chips walking around the house in it earlier!

hole damn potato chip factory..... holy hottttt... your mister needs to take you clubbing. He would be the envy of every man in the place.
