Small Portions At Restaurants

[healthiermeat40 25]

When I had my first meal out at a restaurant, I went to Salt Grass Steak House with my nieces. I order the child's size portion of baby back ribs & french fries. I could only eat 3 french fries & 1 baby rib. I was very upset. But as times goes on I got used/familiar with my sleeve now, i have no problem ordering off the kid's menu. more money in my pocket & i have left overs.

I've been out twice for dinner since being sleeved and it's been OK. On Saturday night I went to an Indian restaurant and just ordered an entree serve of chicken (would've been 2 thighs) and managed to only eat one thigh with about a tablespoon of lemon rice.

I went out again for dinner on Monday night and again ordered just an entree of lemon pepper calamari. I only managed maybe 3 calamari rings, 2 chips and 2 slices of cucumber from the salad.

I haven't yet attempted ordering off the kids menu, but from what they offered, it was crappy fried food anyway.

I'm going out again in a few weeks to an Italian restaurant which mainly deal with pizza...any suggestions appreciated as to what I can have. I was thinking thin crust vegetarian if they have it.

my dr gave me a card stating that I had bariatric surgery and could only consume 3oz at a time and to allow me to order a kids meal or a 1/2 size portion ... I went to red robin and red lobster.. both didn't even question me when I asked if it were possible to see a kids menu bc I have had surgery and they were like yeah no problem at all. I ended up splitting a meal with my friend both times and even at red lobster.. the waitress even asked if I wanted a small side salad bc my friend was getting one with her meal and she got me one at no charge.
