You are right. I was wrong. We all need to walk our own journey and I humbly, sincerely apologize. I know you are considered a leader and knowledge base for everyone here and I am deeply embarrassed I crossed such a treasured member of this community and hope the rest of you don't choose to make me a pariah because of this.

Zero excuses. I was rude to someone important. I apologize once again and hope this is the end of the acrimony.

Ugh... Every POV here is important. I do appreciate the kind thoughts, though.

As I said, I don't think you intended offense or rudeness. Written stuff like this makes reading tone very tough. So, no need to apologize. Least of all to me.

Keep up the good work.

Good luck,

Tek

I love the Outback kids meal and the Texas Roadhouse kid's meal. It comes with so much and lasts me way more than one meal.

For anyone in the DMV, Silver Diner is the greatest. They have healthy kids meals based on the adult menu. I’m a huge fan of the turkey and fresh veggies. One kids meal is enough for two meals. Delish, low calorie, and cheap. They also have the adult under 600 calorie menu which is delicious but a lot of food.

Texas Roadhouse has grilled chicken tenders. I order that plus fresh veggies which is normally brocolli and carrots. The chicken tenders are so juicy soft and seasoned very well!

Garbonza Mediterranean Fresh is really good. I love their chicken, which you can have made as a salad, gyro, pita, rice bowl, or by itself. Add in all the fresh toppings such as chick peas, hummus, Tomato and cucumber salad, and so much more....yum. We just Doordashed it tonight and I have plenty left over for lunch tomorrow.

How do you get away with ordering from the kids menu?. My surgery is Monday so I have time until I’m there but curious

You can get a card from your doctor, Amazon or Bariatric Pal that says that have to allow you to order from the kids menu, share with someone or order smaller portions.

Usually they let you. When they don’t automatically, I pull the manager aside and explain I had weight loss surgery. Never had a problem.

Some of the restaurants I’ve gone to have kids meals but they have an age limit on them. FOR KIDS UNDER 10 for example.

They say under 10, but usually allow you to order without a problem or if you tell them you’ve had weight loss surgery.

Never hurts to ask; the worst thing they can do is say no. Seniors' menus are another option, but again, sometimes they're more "strict" about such things than others.

Thanks for all your suggestions. I will definitely ask for the kids meal next time. I'm glad to know what restaurants have what meals.

This is how. And it's Ricky Gervais not Ramsey. LOL

It's better to just order what you want that's healthy and box half of it or more before you start eating. Kids' meals are usually full of fat and carbs and are not good.
