Going away for the weekend...and eating??
We are going away for the weekend...visiting my son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter. I had my RNY August 16, 2012. I haven't had to deal with eating out. I have no idea how to work eating this weekend. I know we will be taking the kids out to dinner at least once. Any tips greatly appreciated.
