Do You Order From The Kids Menu?



Recommended Posts

My doctor gave me a surgery card. It states that I had a gastric surgery and can only consume a maximum of 4 ounces per meal and that they request I be allowed to order from the kids menu or the senior's menu. I have used it and only had one problem one time. I attempted to use it Hometown Buffet, and the manager told me that corporate will not allow them to accept the surgery cards and that I had to pay full price, so I told him that I just chose not to eat. The thing that kills me is that there, it only saves 50 cents! I sat and watched my family eat, and then came home and fed myself.

I agree that the kids menu options are usually not healthy choices. I tend to order from the appetizer menu and even then I find I bring home leftovers. If we are going out and taking the grandkids, which is usually the case, I order a regular meal, split it with my 4 year old granddaughter and then bring the leftovers home for lunch the next day.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
