It's official!.... I can't eat out!

Went out to eat for dinner and I ate too much & feel nasty. I ate slow but didn't measure and didn't realize how much was going in :'( I ordered a Cobb salad with no Bacon or dressing I just at the egg, the a lil turkey and the avocado. But my husband had shrimp and I kept picking and picking and probably ate 10 pieces of little shrimp.

I'm nauseous but nothing will come up. So much discomfort. I didn't get the full feeling until 20 minutes after so late and I can't express my feelings of disgust!

Surgery 7/25/12

My Dr said no fresh uncooked fruit or veggies for at least a month. They make the stomach work too hard to digest and we ar still trying to heal.

I eat out every night. It's just me and my husband' date=' so I don't cook any more. Before we go, I check the nutrient content on wherever we're going so I'll know what to order and how much I can eat. I hope that helps.[/quote']

That's what I do. If I can't check in time I stick with grilled poultry or fish.

What is wrong with me?

Your normal LMFAO WLS affects everyone in different way. Sometimes I don't get that full feeling but I stop because I will end up vomiting which hurts like a mother.

I DID IT!! I ate out today! My hubby and I went to mucho burrito, where with the help of my restaurant card (pictured below) I was able to order a tiny kid's meal chicken and bean burrito (no rice, spices or anything extra) I ate two bites and was fully satisfied! Sat well and had choc milk after! So happy! Cost less than $5 and the burrito makes 4 me-size meals!! YAY!

Actually I JUST heard from a friend who had her surgery three years ago that APPARENTLY she was on each stage for TWO weeks!? Whereas I was only on each stage for a week each...has anyone else heard/done this??

I stayed in the hospital for 3 days. The day I went home I was on soft foods. I guess you can say purée. By my third week I didn't have any diet restrictions. The doctor said I was doing so good he didn't see a problem. He just reminded me to chew, chew, chew and eat slowly. So far I have never been sick to my stomach. Some foods give me an uncomfortable feeling. But that's it. When I feel like that I just go back to the soft diet for a couple of days.
