Bariatric Food Card for Restaurants?
Good morning everyone!
Just wondering if anyone knows if Guelph Bariatric Clinic gives out Bariatric Food Cards for Restaurants? I see they do that in the US and am curious if they might do that here Ontario. I realize the restaurant cam make their own decision to accept it or not but just wondering.

I'm through Guelph and I did not get one. I have never read of any of the Ontario Centres giving out one. Once you are so far out post-op, you usually find something on the appetizer menu that is a perfect size.

Referral to Guelph Feb/13, Sleep study and all bloodwork and ultrasound May/13, orientation July/13. Nurse, NUT,SW Sept/13, 2nd NUT, nurse and SW, 3rd round and cleared for surgery Dec/13. Pre-op Apr 7/14, Surgeon May 2/14, Opti Jul 3/14, surgery Jul 17/14.
I either order an app, normal entree and take it for leftovers for a few meals or order from the kids menu. I've heard of, but don't know where you'd get those cards. I've never been questioned or told I cannot order from the kids menu. When I eat out with my fiancé I'll get a soup or side salad and if I'm still hungry, just pick off of his plate. A lot of times when I'm eating out it's head hunger and not physical hunger. I've always joked with him that I'm a cheap date.
I got one in 2006. Surgery in Michigan. Never used it once. Lol
