Where to buy small utensils?



Recommended Posts

I'm preparing for my operation and I would to start buying some the things I will need after my Lap Band.

What kind of utensils would you reccomend? Where to buy them?

I am hoping to find a set of small stain steel utensils.

Thanks!

Personally, I use a small plate in proportion to my meal size, but I've never used small utensils. I know some people swear by them, but I've never felt the need to use them. You've found a nice looking inexpensive set, so it sure won't hurt to have them on hand.

I liked them too. Also, at the bottom of the page they have the appetizer plates. Thinking about buying some of those too.

Oh, thanks, those plates are darling. I have a Crate and Barrel in my mall, so that will give me something new to shop for today. lol

I just purchased baby spoons, which you can get at any child store or Toys-R-Us. I like to eat from bowls, but I did get rid of all my big plates and purchased 8 inch.

I'm using an espresso spoon and pickle fork. The pickle fork used to be my cheesecake fork. I used it to eat whole cheesecakes, but slower. I used to think, You have to eat the whole cheesecake because you're not binging tomorrow and throwing it away is wasteful.

Those Crate & Barrel utensils are really cute. I may get them to have something that matches.

Good luck on your surgery!

Chopsticks are also a good option, especially if you don't use them often. They force you into eating only small pieces and they tend to slow you down. Plus, they're very trendy and you can look way cool.

FYI...I bought the set from Crate & Barrel. They are very nice. I can't wait to start using them.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
