First time eating out



Recommended Posts

Well I have official had my first fast food since having surgery and well, it wasn't what I remembered it to be! LOL

We are visiting family for Christmas and here in NE there is a place called Amigos (fast food tacos) and it was always my favorite place to eat (esp. after being out drinking all night!! LOL) So I said I was going to try it! We ordered 1 soft taco, a crisp meat burrito (fried meat/cheese burrito) and chips and cheese (also has enchladal sause) for the three of us!! (before I could eat all of this MYSELF) So I had a bite of the taco (small bite) and two chips and 3 decent bites of the burrito and UGH FULL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was good but it really wasn't what I remembered it to be and I do LOVE that because now I know I won't be craving it again!!! YAY!!!!

Yup isn't it interesting how that works now? I actually don't really enjoy food that much anymore either. . when we go out I can't really see myself go to the buffet restaraunts cause that is a total waste of money, we go to the sit down places instead and when i order, i just ask for a take out box at the same time. . . then i chew on the leftovers for a couple of days. . ugh. . it's really not worth it. . . :unsure:

My tastes for my old timey favorites are all but lost. I can't stand McDonald's cheeseburgers and mcnuggets anymore, and pre-op, I'd slam down 2 of those double cheeseburgers easily. Taco bell still has me with their bean burrito, no onion, but I can only eat 1/3 of it. I don't even like Papa Johns or pizza Hut pizza anymore. I do still enjoy most "sit down" restaurant meals. Those little southwest eggrolls from Chili's are my favorite. I just peel off most of the tortilla shell and eat the insides.

I think it's crazy how much things have changed. A lot of it has to do with the sheer fact that I can eat such a small portion, that small amount of food better taste divine.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
