Special card to use when going out

Did anyone here ever receive a card to use at restaurants? So they know that you've just had bariatric surgery, and to allow you to order from the children's menu, should you choose.

I haven't had my surgery yet (Friday is the big day), but when I went for my Pre-op appointment, one of the coordinators gave one to me,and told me to make sure I write my name on it. I think it's so cool!! I'm going to try to not eat out, but it's great to have this.

    I just order an appetizer or my hubby orders something a bit bigger. Then I just take a little from his plate. I just can't bring myself to order anything since I can only get 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup food

  • I got one its kinda strange even if I went out I dont know if i would use it,

  • If the waiter is nice, I just explain to them I had wls and that I would like to look at kids/senior menu and places I have been to have been fine. I haven't ordered off the kids menu though, usually
