Anybody using a Portion Plate?

Hello! I just ordered this thing and was wondering if anyone else uses it too? post-119529-14330709170188_thumb.jpg

Not me. My nut told me to use a small salad plate or saucer.

Where did you order that plate? We're looking to offer something to our members that would be universally useful to all WLS patients.

Alex,

These are available on Amazon for about $12

I bought a very cute Peter Rabbit kiddie plate. Not quite as toddlerish as some of the choices out there.

@@Alex Brecher, any idea when the store will open?

Mine is a Disney plate with three compartments... two very small with one a bit larger. ????

Alex if you go to ebay and google things like...divided toddler plate..and other similar things you will find lots of ideas from cheap plastic to melamine to Stangle pottery. Starting there I bet you could find a manufacturer you could buy in bulk from and even have plates customized for Bariatric Pal.

Maybe sippy cups too.LOL

That's cool!!! When I was first post op and till about 9 months out, though, there's no way I could eat enough to fill all those compartments! My "plate" was typically a 1/2 C sized bowl (like a ramekin) that I filled either halfway or all the way. Might use one now though!

It's funny but his thread made me realize how many meals I eat out of a cereal bowl now instead of a big plate. I guess I just naturally downsized without thinking about it.

That one was from Amazon for about $8

Uh oh! The Mickey Mouse fanatic in me was just enticed! I had looked at some regular ones like the first in this thread but hadn't thought of Disney!! You're getting me in trouble! ????

I've always loved small things -- finally have a use for those demitasse spoons I famously gave my husband for Christmas one year. I also use a beautiful sterling silver shrimp fork instead of the great big forks in the silverware drawer. It's dainty, like me (lol). And I use a variety of ramekins now and dessert plates. I'm serving every one way less these days, though I let them eat from regular sized china. They can always go back for more. In the old days I'd be right behind them for seconds (or more!); not anymore, yippee!
