One question!

I know we won't be able to eat as much!!!! But do you eventually get back to the place that you can enjoy going back out to eat, or go to a BBQ, baby shower, reception!?! All within reason!!

You absolutely can. You know beforehand that you will only be eating a little bit and will be bringing yummy leftovers home for a couple more meals. I have found that now I actually enjoy the socializing and interactions of eating out with others more than I used to, because now I concentrate on the people I am with more than the food I used to be stuffing in my face. It is a very liberating realization!

You just change your focus. Now it's not all about the food, and how much I can stuff into my face...but more about the company you keep and if something "tastes" good. And yes the leftovers taste just as good.

8 mons post op & I enjoy going out even though I don't each much. I've always loved leftovers that previously only last for next day's lunch. Now my leftovers last for a few days & it saves us money.

YES! I enjoy all the same things, about half the quantity as before, and I choose more wisely. (2 years out)

Yes, I love going out. I'm a little over two years out. At first, I ordered off the appetizer menu, and sometimes I still do. Or I just order a meal and eat what I want. For example, last night we went to PF Changs. I ordered the summer special: swordfish. I ate some of the veggies and about 3 oz. of the fish. It was on white rice, which I don't eat much so I just left that. Hubby ate the rest of the fish, and I just left the remaining veggies and rice on the plate. It was no competition for my fav fish there, the Oolong Tea Marinated Sea Bass served over spinach, but I felt like trying something new.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
