Ralic’s Steakhouse in Haddonfield, NJ., has introduced a menu spefically designed for weight loss surgery patients. Owner David Ralic, who underwent a Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy, developed the menu with the assistance of his surgeon and dietitian. The Weight Is Over menu contains 3-4 oz portions of protein combined with healthy vegetables and starches. There are sugar free desserts available as well as complimentary unsweetened iced tea.
I find that many weight loss surgery patients have difficulty eating out because portions are often too big and choices are limited. I am excited to hear about this new menu and look forward to sampling it soon. The portions and food choices offered on the Weight Is Over menu are also appropriate for any individual wanting to watch their intake regardless of whether they have had surgery or not.
