That's pretty awesome!  Just because we have sleeves doesn't mean we can't enjoy some good food at times.  Just much smaller amounts than before.  Gotta love the sleeve!

 Wow, Frisco, that is so cool!    What was your favorite food that you sampled?  How about favorite wine?  I'll live vicariously through you as I'm sitting here "enjoying" my string cheese. ;-)

OK.... I wasn't gonna post or mention any food..... I know we are all at different stages and we all have different tolerances and triggers.

So keep in mind....I'm in maintenance and would never think of attending something like this during WL unless it was a work thing.

I've been under goal weight for one year maintaining 148-152 for the most part. 

Disclaimers done?

I was handed a glass of Red Wine (unknown) to pair with some Wagyu Beef.......Um......only sexual connotations could describe it.......Might have drank half of the small glass......


This may be the best (food) thing I've ever put in my mouth........

 
Bariatric size !!!! This dessert was probably not over 100 calories....smooth and creamy and not over sweet.

As Lizanne and Diane mention......Quality over Quantity !!! And good food is served in small portions....

If there is a lesson here for "us" bariatric patients.....a big part of lifestyle change is to up your quality in food and stay between the lines.

Hey Frisco I think this is great. Sleeve Boy enters the den of all temptations and does just fine. Please share whatever delites you learned about that are sleeve suitable. Of course, the beauty of the sleeve is that most things are sleeve suitable in modest amounts and most really superb quality food comes in small amounts.  Anyway, great picture. Thanks for posting this.

Wow, I'm totally jealous. I'm a big Morimoto fan! And to me, the sleeve is perfect for this kind of thing--you can just have little tastes of wonderful food. I actually appreciate really good food more now post sleeve than I did before surgery. Quality over quantity!!

Awesome! I love the LA festival.

I'm going to the Epcot food and wine festival this weekend. It'll be Stilton Cheese for my while my husband eats everything, lol. That's ok, though.
