Just found out something really good. My family and I are heading to Disney soon. If people get a card from their doctor re gastric surgery, they can qualify for kids' food rates at buffets and allows people to order off the kid's menu at other places. I called my doctor's office and they said yes it was true. So keep that in mind if you're heading there!

But how many healthful choices are on a kid's menu? Which Disney? Disneyland or Disney World? At Disney World, there are some places in Epcot that have healthful food.< /p>

Disney World. There are healthy items on a child's menu. Some things might need to be modified a bit, but it's the idea of smaller portions that make it worthwhile to me. When at Disney I certainly can't take half of my adult meal home. Plus, any way to save costs appeals to me!

Yep, my doc gave me a few of these cards when I left the hospital. I need to put one in my purse, but thought it was cool for any time at any restaurant. Although since my hubby had RNY 3 yrs ago most likely we will order one entree and just share it. But, at times when he is not with me it will be nice to order smaller portions.

Have fun at Disney....that is on my 40 to 40 list (40 things to do before I am 40, 4.5 yrs to go)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
