Haha! How to make a restaurant crazy...



Recommended Posts

I happened to notice my glass was cracked. But really, the food was about to come and I don't need any more tea....

"Oh no don't worry, you don't have to get me another," I said.

You sure? You sure? Seriously? Are you sure? But it's no problem....

"No no it's nothing wrong. I've had surgery and I can't have any Water or anything after I eat any food."

Oh..... Okayyyy.... I guess....

Another server is all "OMG do you need a drink?" No no, I'm fine.

The manager comes over to ask me if I need another tea. NO REALLY I DON'T!! It's not a problem, you could bring 30 glasses and I can't drink any of it, so it's ok!!

Are you sure?

For the love of this single scrambled egg with cheese, yes, I am sure.

Ha! I can imagine seeing someone without a drink it's a huge red flag to them.

Lol.

My husband and I were celebrating one night (post-sleeve) and went to a really nice restaurant. I told the waiter I didn't want a drink...

"How about just a Water?"

"No, thank you."

"But the Water is free."

I'm sitting there dressed in well over $40,000 of jewelry & an expensive handbag... And I'm about to spend over $150 for a meal that I'm only eating 4 bites from.... Uh, I'm not really worried if the water is free. LOL

Lol. I have given up the fight with the wait staff on Water. I just order it and don't drink it. Otherwise you get into a fight and have too many questions to answer.

I often drink 'til about 10 mins before, but one sip after I've eaten and YGGHHH!!! NO GOOD!! I just thought I was saving them a trip to not replace it, but apparently I was just making EVERYONE's life harder, LOL

Two comments: 1- I order the Water to kept the servers from pestering me about a drink. I have sipped the Water until the the meal has arrived and even take a sip with the meal (especially when a bite seems stuck). Water has never "filled" me or made it possible for me to eat to excess.

2- I was out with a friend and his mother for dinner and trying to explain my routine of sharing a meal instead of ordering a meal. The mom was worried I wouldn't get to have free pie (that was the promo for the day to get a piece of pie free with each meal) I tried again to explain that I didn't need pie (and wouldn't have room for dessert). She happened to decide she wanted the special but "only the eggs and hash browns". I suggested she order ham and the strawberry crepe with the meal (since they were included) and I could eat these for my meal. She again said I wouldn't get pie if I didn't order a meal. I told her I didn't need a piece of pie. The server said he could add the extra piece of pie since the other 2 (Jody and his mom) ordered large milks with their meals. So I shared the meal and they were able to take an extra piece of pie home. (I did take a bite of the coconut cream pie which was heavenly!)

      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.
