This has happened faster then I thought it would. My Ex-boyfriend called things off because of the surgery. His lose at this point of the game. Tonight Im going out with a guy I have known for several years and he is cool with the surgery. I cant believe Im going out to eat and on a date just 5 weeks out from surgery. The outfit was easy to pick, It's the only one that fits me after dropping 46 pouns.

Do you have any thoughts on what to eat this soon after surgery at a fancy place.

Thanks,

Appetizer!!!

I agree - something small & protein. I also recommend eating very slowly. And dont have anything too greasy or sugary --- that could ruin your evening. Focus on the conversation & company instead of the food & drink. Have fun!

Shrimp cocktail maybe...

If you are cleared for all food... Shrimp cocktail, any grilled or broiled fish or chicken should be fine.

Thanks for the ideas. I will try to focus on the conversation instead of my dinner. This is worst then waiting for your prom date to show up. He is driving in 5 hours for the weekend. This should be a fun night.

Thanks again.

Protein, and remember to not ask for any Water or liquids. And absolutely focus on the company rather than the food.

Have Fun!

Well? How did the date go? Well, I hope!

Thank you all for the help. The date went really well. We had a nice dinner and talked the night away. then we meet up for Breakfast and a new long walk in the morning before he drive back. We are hopping to meet up again in a few weeks.

As for the food stuff. Everything went fine. I didn't over eat. My sleeve does very well with anything down it at this point. No pain, no gas or no issues.
