  1. This journey is amazing I could not believe that I would be full and satisfied with a starter at a meal,, I went on my works Christmas lunch last week they don't know I have had a sleeve done only my family we had to pre order I just had a starter of cheese and pickles with a side salad I could not eat a quarter of it I also order just a fruit juice with loads of ice I was busy talking so nobody noticed that I wasn't eating and drinking I left most of the starter and my juice but had a fantastic time it will take you a few months to get your head around eating out after your sleeve I avoided it at first then I managed by asking for a kids meal or I took my own take away box in my handbag and sneaked the meal in to it as here in England they are very funny about letting you have a kids portion you will still have to pay for a adult meal
