I sometimes get a footlong tuna sub with lots of veggies at Subway. It's quite a few meals but it gets soggy quick and my boxer is more than happy to eat soggy tuna. SOOO, I had a brain fart the other day. I wondered if explained my situation, would they accommodate me. They kindly did. [

I got a card from my bariatric center that allows bariatric patients to order off the kids menu when eating at restaurants. You just show the card to the wait staff/restaurant emplyee before ordering so they don't object to you ordering smaller portions off the kids menu. I don't plan on eating out since I've had surgery, however.

Hmmm...I've often thought of the idea of ordering from the kids menu, but never knew such a card existed. Maybe my surgeon's office would know something about this? Interesting...

I have the card however I'm the type who has no issue with eating the same leftovers for days. This worked out perfectly for me. I cut off 2 1/2 inches of bread and make a tiny sub. I still peel off the thick part of the bread for the dog. I don't consider eating at subway eating out. My experiences with eating at restaurants is too much sodium or sugar. I am no sugar, low sodium. Subway works well for me.

Try Jimmy Johns u wick. No bread or carbs and low calories. It's a great option. The sandwich is wrapped in lettuce. You can use your hands to eat it like a regular sandwich.

Well I ended up using less than half of the bread. I turned my side veggies into a salad and ate the tuna with a spoon! How does the unwich do in the refrigerator? Can you get days worth of meals with it? Does the lettuce stay good?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
