First restaraunt tonight

I was at my mom's today with my daughter, and mom mentioned she was going out to dinner with a friend that my daughter adores. Well, Paige asked if we could go too. I said ok. When we mentioned it to mom's friend, she couldn't understand how I was going to go to dinner with them. "But it's Chinese - you can't have that" was the comment. I just answered - "jus****ch me!". I had a teaspoon of my daughter's egg drop soup, a tiny bite of her sparerib, and I ordered steamed chicken and string beans (no sauce). It wasn't like the chow mein I used to get, but it was good, and I was able to enjoy the experience of eating out again without worrying about getting myself sick. And better yet - it's the first time I have ever had Chinese food and not been hungry within half an hour of eating!!!! Today is really the first day that I feel kinda normal again. mgm

Congrats to you - keep up the great work!! Teri H 4 days post op!!!
