Any dinning advice for Disneyland in California?

[Miss Rachel 25]

I'm going to be 6 weeks out and already tolerate regular food. I know my limits and listen to my body. We are going to Disneyland for Christmas. It's a family tradition. Does anyone have any suggestions about what I can eat in the park?I have read a lot about Disney world and its completely different from southern California. We practically live in this park but I have never looked at it through bariatric eyes...

Just so happens we are going to Disneyland tomorrow. There is a food 4 less about 2 miles away to pick up what ever you make your shakes with. Powdered Protein travels easy. I got individual packets to powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. There is very little you can eat 6 weeks post WLS at Disney restaurants, but you can get 2% milk at some venders. I will bring a shaker and packets of Condiments with me. And buy tuna in pop top cans, a pound of cottage cheese and a roasted deli chicken. Which will last me all five days, my kids will eat the chicken along with their crispy cream donuts.. there was a group on for Medieval Times so we are going there too. Can't wait to see

What I'm paying $52.00 to not eat.

Have fun!

I would opt for the tuna pouches. Maybe some turkey/cheese roll ups. If they allow you in the park with food. Or leave in cooler in car, good exercise walking back to car for lunch.

I have not been to Disneyland but went to Disney World a couple weeks ago. We ate out for most meals. My daughter (9) and I would usually split a chicken Cesar salad or occasionally a cheeseburger which I would eat with no bun. Also ate part of my husband's meals and never really ordered one for myself. I did not want to be carrying a bunch of food around while in the parks. I took strollers, bags, and tons of stuff for years so I am happy not carrying anything more than a small purse!

When I was preparing for the surgery I bought a bariatric food case because we travel a lot! I could use it for the car. I was looking at the menus for Disneyland restaurants and I see where I can manage meals. I totally can eat salmon and lamb and we will get a late reservation for the carthay circle world of color dinning tickets. Then I can get a doggie bag...

Heading there now! I plan to pick at my toddlers or husbands food. No point in wasting $$. Jolly holiday has great sandwiches I may con my husband into that so I can eat the meat filling.

Ok guys so one update I have for you is the bengal barbecue. It's considered a snack stand and it's across from the jungle cruise. They sell skewers of meat for $4.50, which by Disney standards is a deal! For a Normal person it's a snack but for us the perfect size and a good dose of Protein. I plan to visit today I'll post pics.

@@Miss Rachel We were at Disneyland in October...there's a wine stand at the end of Cars land, next to the Wine Country Trattoria, that sells a nice cheese and salami plate, plus bottled Water. There are also turkey leg stands, which my boys loved and I could steal a couple of ounces of meat from them.

I carried a small crossbody purse and kept a couple of Protein bars in it, and filled my water bottle every chance I got. It was a great trip with plenty of walking for exercise, have fun!

We had dinner in a Disney California Adventure restaurant last night. I had two slices of tritium, a bite of lobster, two spoons of potatoes and a few bites of broccoli. The desert plate featured creme brûlée, a Madeline and a dark chocolate mouse cake . So basically $50.00 for 4oz of food. dinner included preferred seating to the holiday light show. Kids are having a blast.
