Most Chinese restaurants, including fast food chains such as Panda Express, will allow you to order an entree on its own rather than a combo that includes rice. This helps to drastically reduce the number of carbs you consume. We often go a neighborhood restaurant that has really steamed boneless chicken that is yummier than you'd expect, and I'll have it with some veggies.

It is pretty easy to make good choices at a Chinese restaurant. I do it all the time.

First ask them what Entrees they have with no sugar in the sauce. They will tell you right away if they have a few or none.

You can replace rice with steamed veggies.

Egg drop Soup is a good choice (I think its gross but people like it)

I get sushi and don't eat the rice.

All it takes is some out of the box thinking and a little will power.

Also even though I know my stomach is fully healed, I'm still terrified to eat rice. Luckily I don't like it anyway.

I'm been obsessed with sushi but I have hold with that sushi because of my post surgery till one years or after thanks for remind that..

I don't eat rice before and after surgery because can mess up my surgery my baratric doctor wouldn't allowed that or I'm straighten hospital surgery immediately..

I eat wonton Soup from restaurant its good but my mom loves it since my mom had baratric surgery in 2012..

I had hardly times to full food since my baratric surgery not laughing matter!! And I eat later or next days..

at Chinese restaurants I order something with non-fried meat and veggies and just eat about a cup of that (with no rice). I then have them box the rest up and I take it home. There should be lots of menu choices you can have if you follow those guidelines (beef & broccoli, chicken & veggies, etc)

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
