    Since surgery I crave Guacamole and fried green tomatoes and fried squash. The problem is I can only eat 1 slice and I am full and it's one of those things I want to gorge on!

  • The carne asada is healthy. I eat that except limit the tortillas to one (two if they are the tiny street taco kind. Avocados are healthy. I limit my avocado to 1/4 an avocado. Fried green tomatoe

Jerky--the "Perky Jerky" brand to be exact. I buy it by the case in 1 oz bags. It's moist and so yummy.

When can we eat jerky?

Sounds good!

I started about a month 1/2 out. I find the Perky Jerky brand was moist, so my sleeve tolerated it the first go round. I have had other jerky brands since and have not had any issue. Jerky is great in that it is high protein, low carb and low fat. Only downfall is high sodium, but compare brands and choose the one that is lower in sodium.

Carbs, anything carby has been hard for me to give up. Chips, tortillas, pasta, potatoes, etc.... I obviously can't eat anywhere near the volume I could prior, but also being 4 months out and down 70+ lbs, I must be doing something right!

I actually waited until week 8 to start eating jerky (jacks links w/chalula) but everyone will be different. If it bothers you wait a few more weeks to try it again.
