Yes - we can eat chinese food.......

Hi everyone - Last night I had my chinese food. It was not alot, but I was so happy i could eat it. I had chicken egg foo young ( it's like an omelet w/ gravy - i forgot to ask for the gravy on the side and it still was ok), I had the insides of a fried dumpling and crab rangoons and stirfried stringbeans. I would have tried more, but everyone else ate what was there. I will definitely try this again. i didn't try rice or noodles but maybe in the future I also stayed away from the ice cream cake and brownies they had for dessert - I'm not ready to try that yet. If you do try chinese I hope you are all just as successfull as I was. Good luck - Marta

Oh I'm glad it worked out for you, you had no dumping huh???? I wonder how szeshun chicken would be for more? Minus the rice and noodles of course!

Nope - no dumpng - i actually have never dumped - yet..... Next time I'm going to try the chinese eggplant w/ chicken - that is szeshun style as well..... can't wait.

Hi Marta, Thank you for letting us know. I went out for a nice dinner and had 1/3 of a dinnner roll with whipped butter on it, Halibut and steamed veggies...it was quite nice. My dinner turned in to 3 meals. It's so nice to know we can still go out and be "normal" to socialize. I remember thinking how satisfied I was on such a small amount of food and that I didn't feel cheated at all. Prior to surgery, I would have eaten the entire dinner, and had desert too. No desert this time and I didn't even miss it. Darla

Woooot glad you were able to eat chinese too. I loved it. Anna
