Restaurant card ??
I have a question not sure if you can answer this or not
Where would I find a restaurant card? Ok let me explain what I am asking about .. the little cards that fit in your wallet says you had gastric bypass and cant eat a lot please let me order off the kids menu. I got a card before my surgery from the clinic however it is half a sheet of paper and thick like cardboard. I was hoping I could find something smaller somewhere. Yes I am guilty we got out a lot to eat, but I try to order food to best fit my new life style. But it ha**** me the last few times we went out I'm tired of bring home some much food and wasting it because I don't eat it all, and its only good for a few days. I tried to not order just eat a little bit off the hubby's plate but I don't always like what he gets or want what he gets.
If some one could point me in the right direction, website or something I'd appreciate it
Thank you

I got the small wallet size card you are talking about from my surgeon's office. Now I haven't used it. I either take bites off my hubby's plate, it is cool to share a meal, or I order a togo box with my meal. I find that what I put into the togo box will feed me for 2-3 more meals. Dennis will often nibble from the box in the fridge too. I look at the leftovers as just excess and if I don't eat it, life will continue to go by. It is not the end of the world to toss unwanted food.
My hubby just chuckles when I tell him I am a cheap date as we share a meal. I would check with your surgeon's office again for the smaller card. Best of luck.
