Really is there a such thing?

Yes I have it. They have it to me when they sent me home from the hospital.

Don't think you can have salads at 5 weeks yet... Chicken' date=' steamed veggies, very small amounts of mashed potatoes, lean beef, Soup, chili...depends on what stage you're in[/quote']

I heard it's best to stay away from starchy food

It is, but depending on your tolerance you may be able to have a little bit.

Marla, I always eat off the kids' menu. Chili's is the best bc you get 4oz grilled chicken and steamed broccoli for under $5!! I've never been out of the country, but you have a great idea there with seafood.

I studied abroad 2 years ago. food in Europe is all fresh no preservatives and south better for you. In Spain on the coast they serve a lot of sea food so you should be fine. Just avoid the fried foods( not like ours but still fried ) and sweets and you'll so fine. Are you traveling anywhere else?

I went out at five weeks and had a cup of beer cheese Soup and a bit of shrimp. I am now only six weeks but my surgeon upgraded my diet and I can now have regular food. I just know I need to be careful so I still will probably stick to the easy foods...at least for awhile..

I'm not even going to ask for a card. Most of the stuff on the kids menu isn't healthy at all. I'd rather just order what I want and have leftovers for a few days.

Red lobster does have kids crab legs!!! But yeah, even my 8 year old usually orders off the adult menu cuz he doesn't want a cheeseburger or chicken nuggets....

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
