Good times

[SARAH S]

Just spent Thur, Fri and Sat away, managed really well with food, drinks etc. Hotel restauarants were helpful when I told them I had a fat intolerance and prepared food as requested.

The places we chose to go, Plymouth Marine Aquarium, Bristol Zoo and Longleat were all packed - Bl**dy half term!!!

Came back late on Saturday and OH made me a hot choc drink, I poodled off to bed and started to feel a bit off - the idiot had only given me Cadburys instead of Options!!!!!! (only a few words were said!!!!)

Yesterday was my beautiful grandaughters 1st birthday and we had a wonderful day with her

And then tonight I went trick or treating dressed as a vampire, aghhh!!! what a hoot!! got completely soaked as it was persistenting down!!!

Well, I promised my little girl I would do these things so, true to my word, I've started having fun doing daft stuff.

Well I'm going to weigh in on Wed so we'll see how its gone....cant wait Had a couple of glasses of Rose wine while away....can't say that it affected me...probably because 1 glass now takes 2 hours to drink!!!

 

[SARAH S]

Oh and I had my Blood Pressure check this morning and its "normal"

"What fun!!"

Very pleased to hear that restaurants and eateries were helpful with your food choices.

I have wondered if -- post surgery -- I might sometimes be able to ask for the child's meal options.

Obviously I am not there yet but it is one of the things I have pondered about !!

Can't beat a kids meal!! I've yet to find a restraint that hasn't been helpful. At the end of the day if they want your money theyll be flexible! ;-)

At the support meetings at my hospital you can get a card with your photo on it signed by the dietician or bariatric nurse requesting a childs portion because of surgery. I've yet to try mine out as my op isn't till Monday but so many places I've visited and spoken to are willing anyway, I'm not really sure if I'll be using it very often.

apparently you can get these from the BOSPA website too

 

[SARAH S]

I was given one of these....never used it though.

I tell the waitress I have a fat intolerance and can't eat too much and they have all been great.... some people on here have suggested taking a tuperware box and taking what you leave back for lunch the next day.

To be honest though I've always prefered the starters in restaurants anyway.

I sometimes feel that kids meals aren't particularly healthy, being mostly served with chips, but most places will do anything you like anyway

good luck when your time comes
