My family and I were discussing our Easter plans. Our holidays have pretty much always revolved around eating too much and having a few drinks. This year I will be on soft foods and unable to have a drink. Obviously, I need to find a new way to enjoy special occasions because it shouldnt be all about the food. How do you all celebrate Easter after WLS? Also my birthday is coming up shortly after that, any advice about that would be great. I know things will be different but I still want to have a good time.

Check with your surgeon, devilled or hard-boiled egg may be OK at that time. That would work for Easter!

For my birthday, I still celebrate by going out, but I pick something WLS-friendly. I've done a steakhouse, a BBQ place, and hot wings over the past few years, and no birthday desserts.

Well that's certainly easier than making your own enormous egg...

This man goes to the Doctor and says, I can't understand why I'm not losing weight, all I eat is 6 eggs a day! The Doctor asks, What kind of eggs?, Chicken, goose, or what? The man answers, Cadbury eggs.
