All you can eat restaurant

I thought i had read some where that u can get a card showing that u are unable to eat alot so u only get charged what a child will eat. If there is a card where could i get one i cant see paying full price for 2-4 bites. Esp when my 2 yr old eats more then me,

My surgeon provided me a card that says something about allowing me to order smaller portions. I haven't had to use it yet.

I haven't gone to an all you can eat place - it's not worth it.

When I eat out, I share what my husband is eating or will order an appetizer (and usually share). I'm a cheap date now!

Some people have said they got a card from their surgeon. I don't have one, I don't go to buffets and at ala carte restaurants I just order an appetizer or take half of a regular entree jome.

My wife & I recieived a card from our surgeons stating we've had bariatric surgery & can only eat a small portion, most places will give you a child's price but they are all different. Only found one that didn't honor it so far.

Like previous posters, I received a card from my doc. Call yours and see if they provide one. Good luck

      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.
