So first, I am not sleeved but I wanted to see how post op sleevers feel on this topic. My boss takes our team to lunch a lot! Great perk for most I have a little social eating anxiety now with my band bc I am never sure when it will eject my food ... Even Soup some times . Obviously I know there is a 6 wk period where I will have to decline post op. But after that do you guys ever face these situations. Do u order an appetizer or take 7/8 of it home? Just curious thanks ahead of time for sharing

Ps this could apply to any eating out.

A lot of the times u can find the menu online and that would give you an opportunity to figure out you want before you go.

I ordered off the appetizer section or had soup till I could eat more. Shrimp and Crab Cocktail were my favs early out.

I eat out a LOT. I'm 4.5 months out, and the only issue I have with eating out with other people is that I'm always starving right before I eat and end up eating too quickly so I'm left there not eating while everyone else finishes their food. But this is just my own struggle, I don't know if others have a hard time making themselves slow down. but aside from that, no issues. I can eat anything. I usually do have leftovers, but I'm starting to not take them home with me anymore because I'm finding they just don't taste good later.

Thanks all !
