Since they r high in sodium do they make u retain fluids. they r 0 carbs 9 Proteins but I assume they r fried. They really satisfy a snack plus make U drink more Water. I had my sleeve in Mexico do I don't hsvr a Nut to ask. Just wondered ig anyone else have eaten them since being sleeved.

You COULD eat them, but I assume they're fatty and salty as hell, like chips.

Should you eat them? My guess is no.

I do splurge and have them on occasions. It's important to know that the Protein in Pork rinds is not a significant source of protein tho. once in awhile wont hurt u, I just wouldnt eat them everyday.

Pork rinds.< /p>

Salty, fried goodness, but too rich for me. Sleeve definitely didn't like them.

What I've been doing for a crunchy, savory snack is making kale chips myself. You can find lots of recipes online and control the sodium yourself. It's a great fall vegetable, just fyi, packed with Vitamin C and other goodness.

Hope that helps ...

Pork rinds...YUM!! Yes you can have Pork rinds if your sleeve tolerates them. They are a good snack and just fine if you don't have to watch your sodium intake due to heart problems, etc. And they are fried, but you do need some fat intake to help you absorb your fat-soluable Vitamins. Moderation in everything should be your general rule for living with your sleeve. Also bear in mind that although pork rinds are all Protein, no carbs, there is not a lot of nutrition in them either.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
