I am meeting a friend for dinner this evening at macaroni Grill. If possible, I NEVER go out to eat without looking at their menu on line. I know or at least have an idea of what I will get, or my husband and I know what we'll share. I haven't been to Macaroni Grill since surgery. Almost 3 years! I am thinking either Grilled Shrimp Spiedini or the Grilled chicken Spiedini, they are 380 and 410 calories respectively.

Has anybody had either of these? If so, is it good, which is best etc? High in Protein for both of them, I'd eat a few bites of veggies too.

If you have a suggestion, tell me!! Thanks!

I had the Grilled Shrimp a few weeks ago. I was very good.

I had my Surgery on this past Nov 7.

I was down from 324 to 295 prior to surgery.

Now sitting at a Awesome 215 :-)

I had to go to MG about 3 weeks after surgery for a meeting of my daughters XC team. I had the Grilled Shrimp ( I was supposed to be on purees). It was good and I chewed a long time. Ate about 4 of the 6 shrimps, it was good, and had no problems.

Thanks y'all.....shrimp it is. It is the easiest thing to eat for me, meat wise. Goes down easy and I've never had a problem with it, making me feel tooooo full.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
