Jennifer,
I did your trick and I ate exactly how I needed to and nothing got stuck or anything yucky like that. I took 10 minutes to cut the enchilada up in tiny pieces and mixed the beans and rice together. It took a long time to eat but I was not over full. I drank a tiny bit of lemonade after I was done eating. I would definitely call my first eating out a success!
Yay!!
I can hardly imagine what it was like for me before when I would eat three times the amount I had tonight plus two sodas and part of a dessert. Wow. I am glad I worked so hard to have this surgery. I have absolutely no regrets!
Oh yeah I forgot to say...I have enough leftover for two meals!
