I just had my first buff bowl from noodles and company the other day. It was probably one of the best meals that are fast food out there.

- Greek restaurants always have chicken Souvlaki with a Greek salad (yum)

- grilled nuggets from chick Fila with a side of fruit or a side salad

- Applebee's chicken and portobello mushrooms (one of my favorites)

- chili from Wendy's

- Soups - chicken tortilla

- shrimp cocktail when on the menu

I really try to steer clear of fast food restaurants in general but if I am stuck because there are others with me, I stick to the salads that have Protein on them. I don't do well with any kind of bread nor do I want the carbs.

I do eat pizza on rare occasion and will go for a thin crust with lots of toppings. I can usually eat one small square. I never eat pizza from the chains, there are way too many ingredients that contain crap. I choose family run pizza places that have very very thin crust. Of course I am in Wisconsin and there are a ton of pizza places like that here. It goes with bowling and beer! (LOL). I don't drink beer but will indulge n the rare occasion for pizza.

I generally stay away from McDonalds because I don't find their salads satisfying. Wendt's I like the BBQ chicken salad or chili.

Chili rellenos with refried Beans is my fav.... Always was, even before surgery. but really, I eat anything and everything minus the nachos and rice. Just eat the insides of the taco/enchilada/burrito. Fajitas are easy...just eat the fixings, not the tortilla.

chile rellenos are fried in egg and flour does that sit ok in your stomach?

Yep, I've got a sleeve of steel. There's nothing I can't eat. Carbonation is the only thing that's out for me

Soup. Almost every place has Soup. Some places will do Breakfast all day - so a scrambled egg works too. If you can get to a grocery store, you can ask for two slices of deli meat and two slices of cheese and do little wraps. Sashimi from grocery stores with a sushi chef works too - you can sometimes special order things with them. Cottage cheese.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
