Full Course Dinner

I was joking with my boyfriend the other day about how I'm going to be a cheap date after my surgery.  Instead of going out to dinner, eating my entree and then finishing his leftovers.... he can just order an entree and his leftovers will be 2-3 meals for me.  I told him if he didn't want to spend any money at all.... A walk through Costco, stopping for samples will be a full course meal.  Carabba's Chicken Trio will be groceries for a week.  It will be such a blessing to be able to be satisfied with just a few bites.  If I ever choose to eat Ben & Jerry's ice cream again, a pint will be 8 servings, not one.

he better find some better ways to please you now that he can't just give you food 

He's already promised to take me clothes shopping.....

YAY, great idea clothes shopping instead of food shopping, except I have kids so they n my husband still need to eat. Darn. Oh n protein is expensive but lasts a long time. 

I have a friend who loves splitting meals with me because she knows that I will probably eat 25%  or less.  Then she still gets to say that she had portion control by eating less herself. And co-workers love traveling with me when we are on per diem. In return, I don't pay for the cab.
