I got mine from the nutritionist at the surgeon's office once I was cleared for food post surgery.

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).

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
