I was told by my nut that hot dogs are a no no. But what about turkey dogs??

Will I ever be able to eat hot dogs?

He did not fix your hernia slim? I am writing this in bed Slim and have my large container of ice water. I can take fairly normal sips now. I hate tuna fish, but if I could , I bet I would eat some. 4-6 wks for the swelling to go down wow. PEvette. when are those meetings and how many people go? Do they have a speaker.

They are located on the same floor they take you after surgery, I forgot, I think 5th floor...the nurses didnt come by to talk to you about them....both instructors visited me while I was there to talk to me about things to do when I got home, what to ask him, and wanted my email to send me a reminder about the meetings....they are fairly good number turn out....every month there's a topic this month was emotional eating, but I missed it....it was raining cats and dogs on that day and refuse to drive in the rain unless I have to...

Let's see about them turkey dogs.

Well, really the fat & calories don't seem too bad(not remotely close to good either), but the sodium is through the roof. Remember this is for 1 dog with no condiments. Start adding stuff & it only gets worse.

I was reading this thread thinking oh yeah I'm going to get some hot dogs lol then I read O.T.R.'s post about the sodium. ((

Now I have to give up my pickles and no hot dog for me lol

*sigh*

Try tofu dogs yall...you may think I'm crazy, but they are good...and a good source of protien...

The trick is moderation. Later on if you decide to have a pickle or a hot dog, or God forbid both on occasion it's not going to send you spiraling out of control.

Thanks O. T. R. we have to be reasonable here. I for one will have a little more sodium and other not so good for you things on occasion. Moderation is definitely the trick, says an only dreaming gal on full liquids for a few more days.

^{I second the tofu dogs! They taste great, usually have more protein than normal hot dogs and have like 1/4 of the calories}

^{Morningstar Farms just began production again on their veggie dogs. Still on liquids, so no dog for me yet, but my spouse is a vegetarian and loves them!}

Same sort of question from me - has anyone found a great high quality nice Protein dog? I would love a hot dog!

I second that trader joes hot dogs. I also know you can get good healthy HD at health foods stores or co-ops but they are expensive and go bad fast so best to keep them frozen until use.

I definitely wouldn't recommend eating a regular hot dog. I ate a Nathan's hot dog about a month ago (no bun) & it was too greasy and made me feel lousy. I used to eat 2 or 3 of them with fries no problem but that was the old me. Not going back!
