Eating out

[Fullofitx3 146]

I'm about 11weeks post op and feeling great, been out to eat a couple times but usually just got Soup. Yesterday went to Applebee's with the family and my youngest was looking at the children's menu and said hey dad they have a 4oz steak that would be perfect for you and it comes with mozzarella sticks, which we could share if you want. we all started laughing then after thinking about it I was like that's actually a good idea so I went ahead and ordered it, you could choose from a bunch of different sides but since I knew the steak would be plenty so I got the mozzarella sticks for the boys. let me tell you that steak was the perfect size for me and the price was great, which was around $6, will defiantly be ordering this again.

I eat at Applebees with my mom all the time. I usually order the french onion Soup without the cheese and bread. I also order a side of grilled shrimp. I take home what ever I don't eat. Works out great. I will have to look at the child's menu for the steak.

I've been out a couple of times and just brought home the extras. I hate paying for a big meal that I know I won't eat. Today for lunch I ordered from the kid menu and it was perfect!

My hospital gave me a card to carry with me that discreetly shows I had weight loss surgery so I can order off a kid menu, just in case I get questioned. Not all restaurants will do it, though.

My first time out was a Tapas restaurant. It was perfect with the small plates. I ordered pork meatballs which were great! Last night we went out and I ate a mussel appetizer for dinner
