"All You Can Eat" is such a waste now!

Why YES...It is a waste...So don't go. Go someplace that has SET portions. Why spend money for food you won't eat? Seems silly to me.  Just like I cannot concieve of going to ANY all you can eat pig trough after having my RNY (Like Golden Corral or what have you).  

Warmly,

Wow! Ain't that a fact!!  AND you can not take what you did not eat home for another day.  I'm gonna miss Golden Corral!

Sometimes you gotta take one for the team.

My hubby used to work at a mongolian bbq when we were in college and he has been craving it for a long time but didn't know there were any around here (we moved out of state). I found one for him and wanted to take him there and surprise him. He was so excited so it was very worth it for me. :)

We have a mongolian grill place about an hour and a half from our house and my dh always wanted to go there and one day pre-op I finally said okay... We got there and I was like really ?? you wanted to eat here instead of Red Lobster or a steak house. Needless to say at the end of the meal i thought it was okay but said I probably wouldn't go back. After surgery I did a whole 360 and now I am the one who is always wanting to go there. Funny how things change. I like that you can make your own and you can get alot of protein and veggies in. That is my go to place when I am wanting to dine out, even though it is kind of expensive for what I eat because we don't have the single trip option.

I found one that lets you get a small,large,or unlimited bowls. A small bowl is cheap and you can take home the leftovers. It works for our family.

Jenny, I totally agree with you!!  We are about to go on vacation and I know this is going to happen to me several times.  I can't just expect the rest of the family to eat at only places where I can get a kids plate. =)  I eat what I can then enjoy the company and watch everyone else eating while thinking..."I use to eat that much and more?"  

 Exactly!  You get me. ;)  I have two small ones (4 and 2) and DH and I are taking them to Disney World in mid-September. THAT is going to be interesting. 

We are going to Disney World as well!  Should get very interesting! It is amazing at the changes I see myself going through.
