at mine it's on the reverse of my dietician Roy's business card, my suspection and NOBODY really confirmed it. If some restaurant wants not to honor it they can call him for verification.

I'm glad I found out about this. I'm going to ask my surgeon when I see her. Thanks everyone!

I was looking around in the bp store and saw one of these cards there. I thought that it may be helpful to those of you that do not have one.

Thank you so much for that link. This one is so much better than the flimsy cheapie one I got from my nutritionist. So I used my points on this site to purchase this nice one! Thx!

Golden Corral provides a small discounted buffet price.

Suggestions for those restaurants that do not honor a weight loss surgery card:

Take a doggy bag! Save the rest for later!

Only order an appetizer, a Soup or a salad.< br>
Split a meal, most restaurants will provide a second plate to share a mail for free, some may charge you an extra dollar for the plate.

Please note:

Many chain restaurants are independently owned and operated and some may not honor the card.

There is no law compelling a restaurant to honor a weight loss surgery card (WLS).

      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!!
