Favorite "post-band" chain restaurant?



Recommended Posts

i went to fridays last week. i ordered the grilled chicken ( you get two breasts...but i took 1 and 1/3 home for later) you also get mashed potatoes and green Beans (which are steamed). i had all the green Beans and about 1/3 of the potatoes even though they are starch that was my treat for being out to eat.

it worked out well and the food was tasty so i didnt even miss ordering a burger and fries which is what i would have had pre-band

I have a few...

TGI Fridays - Potstickers seem to fill me up right now, but I also like their Key West Shrimp

Chinese - Anywhere with a good Egg Drop Soup is okay by me!!

Fish Daddy's - (This is a chain but may be an Oklahoma thing) They have great Stuffed Fish. It is enough for 3 meals for me, I LOVE it!!

If I'm with the kiddos...

McD's - Chipotle snack wrap (grilled) maybe some apples if I want something sweet :)

I must say though, that it is amazing that I don't drink pop anymore...but it makes it challenging to find something to drink if you are not in a water-type-of-mood. I always carry a few different flavors of Crystal Lite packets with me just in case.

      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.
