Funny Restaurant Experience



Recommended Posts

On our annual "girlfriend's getaway", the 6 of us went out to dinner. The waiter came to take our drink orders .... assorted orders of wine and beer, and my order of "just Water, please". No problem. Then, it's time to order dinner. On the appetizer menu was 3 skewers..... one chicken, one shrimp, and one beef. It had a price, or, $2.50 each. Perfect! So, I ordered one shrimp skewer for dinner. The waiter informed me I could have 3, and I said no thanks, one shrimp please. Then, he told me if I didn't like beef or chicken, I could have all 3 shrimp. I said no thanks, just one shrimp is fine. He took the order and after he left we had a great laugh at the look on his face! Poor man! But I really enjoyed my skewer of 4 shrimp for $2.50! :D

I always get a kick out of how concerned the wait staff are because I eat so little of my meal and want the rest to go. They always think there is something wrong and I have often had them even send the manager out to see if something was wrong.

I just came back from a cruise and this happened at every sit down meal. I kept telling the waiter that all I did was eat so I was never hungry. But, I did have to keep reassuring him that the food was great:)

When my Boyfriend and I go out to dinner, I finish my entrée and if he had leftovers I'd finish his too. I told him after surgery we can order one entrée and I'll just eat his leftovers (I'll probably still have enough for 2 meals). He's gained 15 pounds in the 7 years we've been together, I've gained 70. I'm hoping by New Years I can wear the same outfit I wore on our first NYE together.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
