 Dallas, TX Member Since: 04/11/07 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 8/14/07 7:53 pm We eat out several times a week usually. What restaurants have great choices for post ops? I would like recommendations for places that are good protein choices? I like delicious food and good service.
So who has yummy grilled foods, low sugar, low fat?
I don't care who honors the discount price card for bariatric patients. I never use mine. I didn't pay restaurants or buffets more when I could eat more so I wouldn't dare ask for a price cut since I eat less. That is just my personal belief and I don't expect anyone else to feel that way. I just take leftovers home.
Thanks yall |

I don't eat in many chain restaurants, but I've been eating out since 5 days post-op. Early favorites for me were tortilla soup, chicken noodle soup, chili and mashed potatoes (in a jam). Once you get to the point where you can eat regular food again, most restaurants will make you a grilled chicken breast even if it's not on their regular menu. Grilled shrimp is another great choice.

Dallas, TX Member Since: 01/01/06 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 8/15/07 7:46 am Taco Cabana for tortilla soup - although I found out last week when I was sick that they only offer soup in the winter. McAlister's Deli for chili. Blessings, Jennifer 253 / 140 (below goal) If I were lying, wouldn't my pants be on fire?!? |

 Fort Worth, TX Member Since: 01/26/05 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 8/14/07 8:48 pm Hi Ann,
Golden Corrall ( they will honor your restaurant card and they have a great variety ), FGI Fridays, Applebee's, Chilis, Cotton Patch Cafe....those are just a few off the top of my head. Be real careful what you order though this early out. Good luck to you.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian |

Fort Worth, TX Member Since: 01/26/05 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 8/15/07 12:41 pm I usually eat from their childs menu. I usually get their grilled chicken breast and steamed broccoli. I sometimes get a cup of soup...their soups are really good and a cup will pretty much fill me up...when I get the childs menu....l always bring about half of it back home with me.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian |

Dallas, TX Member Since: 12/11/02 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 8/15/07 5:38 am After four years as a post op, I am aware of this. I can usually find something to eat at most anywhere. I was hoping to maybe discover a new place from the suggestions of other Texas post ops. |

 McKinney, TX Member Since: 09/18/06 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 8/15/07 9:15 am I'm a big fan of Ghengis Grill or BD's Mongolian BBQ.
You only put what you want in your bowl, so you can skip all the sugar and starch-laden items to get veggies and meat.
Jus****ch the sauces for hidden sugar. Worst case scenario, you can always sneak the soy off your table and pour it on.
Hope that helps,
Rachel
