Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass     |  Ideas for the WLS Savvy Diner Twelve Restaurants for the WLS Savvy Diner  Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill & Bar Welcome to Applebee's® Best menu choices: grilled items such as the Applebee’s House Sirloin or Sizzling Chicken Skillet. Replace the starch with extra veggies. And get a take-home box as the serving will provide 2 or 3 nice “left-over” meals. For shrimp lovers go with the Grilled Shrimp Skewer Salad dressed with Lemon Herb Vinaigrette. Benihana Benihana - Homepage Lots of great choices here! The teppanyaaki style cooking at the table features fresh vegetables and protein chopped, cooked and served right at the table. Decline the white rice and enjoy your healthy meal. The Cheesecake Factory The Cheesecake Factory :: Home :. Something for Everyone! You have to sleuth a bit to get a good WLS-friendly meal here, but it can be done. Try the Crusted Chicken Romano or Lemon-Herb Roasted Chicken. For fish try the Herb-Crusted Filet of Salmon, Miso Salmon or Shrimp Scampi. As with our other picks, decline the rice and ask for more veggies. They are happy to make this substitution. Chili’s Grill and Bar Chili's Do you remember the delicious Awesome Blossom onion at Chili’s from your pre-WLS days? Not such a good choice for your tiny pouch. But you can find some delectable dishes at Chili’s. Try the Grilled Salmon with Garlic and Herbs or for the red-meat tolerant try Chili’s Classic Sirloin. Once you fill-up on protein enjoy some extra veggies and leave the starches alone. Denny’s www.dennys.com Denny’s is America’s classic all-night diner. Not the most figure-friendly menu but careful selection will bring you a WLS-friendly plate at any meal. For breakfast go with the Veggie-Cheese Omelet; lunch, the Grilled Chicken Breast Salad or Turkey Breast Salad; dinner select the Grilled Tilapia or Grilled Chicken sided with tomato slices and green beans. KFC Welcome to KFC.com Surprised to see KFC on the list? Me too. But during the course of a week 26-million Americans visit KFC and chances are you may find yourself at the fried chicken icon wondering what to order. We all know that fried and breaded foods should be avoided after weight loss surgery: they are hard to digest and fattening. At KFC go with the Original Recipe Chicken Breast which is roasted without the skin and breading. Or try the roasted Chicken Ceasar Salad. Avoid the buffet, which is heavy with starchy side dishes and the classic KFC fried chicken. Pizza Hut Pizza Hut - For Fast Delivery, Carry-out or Dine In! Pizza Hut is another surprise selection on our list. But let’s be realistic, with families, co-workers and the need for convenience, delivery or take-out pizza is bound to turn up on your WLS plate now and again. Watch out for the full-fat meat lovers. Though high in protein the fat and sodium is likely to cause discomfort. Go for the Chicken Supreme Thin ‘N Crispy or even the Veggie Lover’s Thin ‘N Crispy Pizza, each of Red Lobster Red Lobster Seafood Restaurants I give this restaurant 5-forks for being WLS friendly. There are several “clean” seafood choices – foods that are not battered or fried. My favorite is the Lobster Chops (split Maine lobster tails wrapped around sea scallops and broiled). The grilled Shrimp skewers are great for garlic lovers and those preferring poultry will enjoy the Grilled Chicken or Apple Walnut Chicken Salad. The generous portions are fantastic for left-over protein, be sure and get a to-go box. Ruby Tuesday Dining Out at Ruby Tuesday Restaurant Praise goes to Ruby Tuesday for being one of the first chain restaurants to identify healthy selections on their menu. They call them “Smart Eating Options”. Go for the Burger Wraps where you chose chicken, turkey or veggie for the protein. From the fish list try Creole Catch or Peppered Salmon. And for a refreshing lunch the Skinny Chicken is a great choice with the lean grilled chicken sided with tomatoes, cheese and romaine lettuce. Delicious! Taco Bell tacobell.com Gotta have lunch, and gotta have it now! Well, Taco Bell is not the most WLS-friendly establishment but try the Spicy Chicken Soft Taco. If you peel-away all or most of the tortilla you will enjoy your lunch much more, as most WLSers report pouch-discomfort when consuming more than a bite or two of tortillas or wraps. T.G.I. Friday’s www.fridays.com Known for “Happy Hour” and outrageous appetizers, T.G.I. Friday’s is a challenge for the health-conscious and WLS post-op alike. Avoid the appetizers and go for an entrée prepared on the grill such as the Chargrilled Salmon or Chargrilled Chicken Breasts. And be sure to ask for the rice (they serve a mountain of it) to be replaced with steamed veggies.

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |
