When can we have that? I'm 4weeks post. It's soft protein.... Seems fatty... Any word?

The weenies off of a hot dog?? I don't know...

But seriously I haven't seen that one come up here... I guess you could but look at the nutritional value.

Try chicken or veggie dogs

You're right. I looked at the label and 13g of fat os wayyyy too much for the taste. I'm just sick of everything I've been eating. It's all the same (cottage cheese, eggs, beans, chili, Greek yogurt). I am yearning for some carbs!!! When did you guys start lifting weights. I'm barely 4weeks and I want to take a class to lift weights but sometimes my main incision site still hurts or throbs sometimes so I hesitate. I have been swimming for a workout and that feels great. Any suggestions?

Hot dog skins I have been advised against early on in the surgery. Plus just as you noted, they are high in calories, and low in Protein.

Makes me want some sausage, lol,

Tuna here I come.

As far as exercise, wait until your fully healed.

Don't pull an incision because you want to start exercise too early.

Tuna is a good idea. Hard boiled eggs. Thinly sliced lean deli meats. My fav from my mushier days a slice of turkey around a piece of cheese.

Thanks for your suggestions. I guess I'm doing this right then. I have eaten cheese deli meat and eggs everyday. I was worried the cheese was too much fat but I guess it's allowed. Sometimes I don't know if I'm doing what everyone else is ya know? Thanks.

Haven't tried tuna yet but I will tomorrow because its so good!

Try low fat mozzarella. Or those baybel cheese wedges or laughing cow wedges

I bought 2 of the salmon pouches and mixed them with 1 egg, tuna, seasonings, small amount of lemon juice, dehydrated onions and 1 scoop of protein powder then made salmon patties "fried" in a skillet sprayed with Pam and 2 tsp. of Can't Believe It's Not Butter LITE. They were really good and soft to eat with lots of protein!

Oscar Meyer Turkey hot dogs are delicious! Honestly you can't tell much difference from the regular ones.

My nutritionist said that almonds are the best for us. I personally prefer cashews but almonds are good also

Do you know if I should be focusing on keeping my calories below a certain number? I'm 4weeks out and I eat an avg of 700-850calories and I'm getting all my protein vitamins and water in. I have been working out 5days a week for the last 2weeks. I feel like I'm eating more calories than others in my time frame but I feel like I am starving myself if I eat only 500 calories and burn 700 working out. Is there a right answer??? Thanks for your time!!!
