chinese food



Recommended Posts

My husband loves chinese food. So when we ordered i asked if they did any meals steamed. Yes they do. Steamed chicken and vegs of course it will last for three meals but was yummy and hubby got his chinese and i had a pretty healthy meal. So i guess it never hurts to ask. Does anyone have any tips or had success at asking for meals altered.

Had lettuce wrap with meat and veggies instead of the tortilla at a small restaurant.

I usually get steamed shrimp and veggies with sauce on the side. That was pre-sleeve, too! I ate soggy, greasy veggies and too much sauce makes me gag.

When I get salad with meat, I ask for the meat on a separate plate so I can eyeball the amount.

No starch, double steamed veggies.

Sandwiches are requested with bread on the side.

Meal boxed to go and a plate so I can serve my own portion.

I think I might just do miso Soup or the salad with the ginger dressing post op.

Didn't get to finish post. The restaurant is always happy to comply. I love it.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
