Eating out during soft food stage

[Dee_Rose 6]

I am 6 days out from my sleeve surgery. Feeling great! I have a very dear friend coming in town who wants to meet up for dinner in 2 weeks. For reasons I dont even want to go into on here, I do not want to tell her about my WLS. I will be in the “soft foods stage” ... is there somewhere I can go out with her and not blow my cover?

I’m in the soft food stage now and I can barely eat 1/2 a cup of food at each sitting so it’s going to be hard for ppl not to notice maybe tell her that you haven’t been feeling good and you’ve lost your appetite and you have a dr appt soon? Otherwise, order soft green Beans and mashed potatoes

Soup!

Definitely preempt the questions about how little you're eating by making some excuse. Been ill, had a late lunch, something.

Go out for coffee!

Or brunch and have oatmeal/yogurt/cottage cheese/scrambled eggs.

Order Soup or something soft and just say you’re not very hungry. It’s simple.
