Sweet.... I can eat at Sweet Tomatoes



Recommended Posts

Today my hubby had a craving for Sweet Tomatoes ( a salad bar chain ) I have avoided going anywhere where there is anything that I would even want to eat but I actually found that it was the best place for me today.

They only charged me the kids meal price $4.99 and I was able to get some boiled egg at the salad bar and then they have on average 6-7 Soups out of which I got a small taste of each one.

My poor taste buds have been killing me with the bland broth choices that I have had and this was the perfect little bite here and there that truly made my day.

Plus my hubby did not feel guilty eating in front of me when I had 3 bowls of Soup in front of me !

I love Sweet Tomatoes but haven't tried going there since I have been banded. How did you go about getting the kids meal price of $4.99? Thanks!

We do not have any local Sweet Tomatoes, but when we travel, we make sure to go if there is one close by. The food selection is outstanding, super high quality, and my, oh my, those Soups are divine. I try to stay away from the Molten Lava Cake. However, I am never successful at staying away from it. :smile:

Do you have the card from your doctor or from the lapband site

?

I just showed them my card and was able to get the discount, another way around that was to just sign up for the club and they send you coupons for a buy one get one free deal which makes it a little cheaper ( since you have to buy drinks too )

The manager at the one we go to here in Vegas was more than accommodating and understanding with the situation which was just great.

Yes, I do have the card from my surgeon. I guess I've always felt a little embarassed to use it. I am also a member of their email club. I haven't gotten any coupons in a long time from it. Occasionally we do have coupons in the Sunday paper. Thanks for your reply.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
