Great idea! I found some sample/appetizer dishes on Amazon and they look fun. They are orginally used for tastings as cooking events.

"congress with a kid"????????????? :o

Well, these bowls are no good for that but if you want something that "comes with a lid and is good for travel".....

I have the Gladware 1/2 cup plastic containers. They have lids and are microwavable. I think it was an 8 pack for $2.50 at Walmart.< /p>

Even though they may say microwaveable, I wouldn't make a habit of microwaving food in plastic. The plastic molecules infiltrate your food and are not good for your health. :(

Those are cute! I use little Farberware bowls from my pattern (Pistoulet) that are just right, or sometimes a wide-mouthed mug with a handle. I use teacup plates and the smallest spoons and forks in my set (I never used to use the salad forks in my set and now use them all of the time). My mom and I were at Anthropologie and I saw teeny tiny salt cellars with a teeny tiny spoon and joked that I should get one to eat out of! LOL

I use the tiny spoons and forks from World Market. They are appetizer size and they have forks, spoons, and knives that are all matching and have really cute handles. They are heavy as well! I have to find joy in the cute things while I'm eating! LOL! :P

I got my plastic bowls with lids at the dollar tree. I believe there were 3 or 4 for a $1. And I bought matching plastic cups, and baby spoons that came in a small plastic case about the size of a glasses case. It was a great way to take them with me, and keep them clean.

I have an old set of restaurant ware. That is heavy restaurant china from the early to mid 20th century. These sets came with what were called fruit bowls. They hold about 4 oz. of liquid are are perfect for new sleevers.

Hit Ebay and do a search on "Restaurant ware fruit bowls." There are some really cheap ones in every color you can imagine. Be careful because if you are like me you will think: The Soup cups for this pattern are cute ... so are the pie plates ... THEN: I like this pattern too.

I would rather not disclose how many sets of dishes I have including serving pieces.

Your secret would be safe with me. I know how those things happen! :D

I can relate! It's funny, I've always had this weird obsession with ramekins and have a bunch of different sets of them but only used them occasionally. Now they are the perfect vessel for my VSG-friendly meals, and I have plenty to choose from. :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
