So a little over a week ago the first Sonic in Michigan opened. The lines were anywhere from 2-4 hours long. Seriously? I would not even wait at my favorite sit down restuarant for 2 hours to get fed. Seeing as I have never eaten there, is Sonic really worth a 2 hour wait?

I do want to try it out but I think I will wait about 6 months to do so.

It was the same thing when Ikea opened. Lines were outrageous. I just waited about a year and then it was not so bad lol.

Sonic is definitely not worth the wait. I can't stand the food there. My hubby swears by them when we are back in TN but *gags* to greasy, even pre banding they were to gross to consider.

Although I do love a good grilled cheese, and they have it on the menu. But my biggest problem with it was it tasted like greasy cheese for the most part. I have never been able to stomach greasy foods.

Nope not worth the wait for this many useless calories. I really don't think there is anything there that is worth my time.

i used to love their slushes...can't have the calories/sugar anymore, but maybe once in a blue moon. their ice cream is average at best and i never had their food, but their grape slush - oh yeah!

Onion rings, man it's been forever since I have had some of those. So fattening.

They're alright, not worth any wait time though. That's weird, maybe it'll die down once the novelty wears off. I like their ocean Water drink, the rest of their stuff is no different from other fast food places.

That reminds me when the first and only Krispy Kreme opened up here and then the big "Atkins Diet" came back around again from the 70s and then the Krispy Kreme died it's natural death and is no more here. There were lines causing all sorts of traffic jams at the time. I did finally get down there, it was a few years ago and they were good but not worth the hassle and not a choice anymore anyway. The one sweet I can't tolerate! yahoo!!:angry:

The Sonic blackberry tea is awesome. It has enough sugar that it might put ya in a diabetic coma, but still.......

I'm so glad we don't have Sonic in NY!

I see commercials all the time for yummy ice cream things.

Sonic frequently appears on list(s) of the highest calorie and fat, fast food items. (Specially the ice cream things I :thumbup: over)

I wouldn't wait for two hours for Sonic, or any fast food restaurant for that matter. Like others said, I find their food to be pretty greasy. But, alas, I must admit I do love their Peanut Butter fudge sundaes!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
