So I'm from Pittsburgh and if anyone follows baseball they know we are in the playoffs for the 1at time since the early 90's....anyway I'm a huge fan....my boyfriends co workers got tickets and included me....so I'm 6 weeks post op and haven't had to worry about a social food packed scene....I watched everyone eat like fools lol and I had my cheese and protein bar and water.....I made it....then they decide to go to the Olive Garden....oh no haven't been to a restaurant since surgery.....but I am so proud.....did not touch the salad or breadsticks and ordered off the light fare menu which was scallops and tilapia....had a few bites and boxed the rest.....best part was I didn't feel bad that I couldn't eat the other things and was completely satisfied with what I got.....now I know.I can do this

Awesome victory! I know you can do this too!!

Good for you! It is a nice feeling to say, "I'm full" while others are stilling chowing down. Enjoy the control.

Great job.

now I know.I can do this

keep up the good work
