Sea weed article



Recommended Posts

Interesting. I do love the toasted sesame seaweed as a snack. And I've had the seaweed salad at the local sushi restaurant. My mom always used to promote kelp and seaweed for their iodine content.

I really like seaweed as a post op. it is the first time I have eaten it. There are a few different seaweed preparations I have tried : seaweed wafers, seaweed salad and seaweed topping. My favorite is the seaweed salad and can be found at costco. It makes for a great side vegetable with your 3 oz of lean Protein. The wafers and topping are more for snacking on. They are a little sweet and very "light" in texture and in calories, but high in superfood properties and iodine. Trader joes has a good selection of seaweed snacking food and Costco has seaweed wafers in bulk. I bought a package of seaweed wafers (12 individual packages of different flavors) 3 months ago and I am still only on my 4th package. I guess I do not eat them too often, but they are a very tasty way to get the superfood properties from a food.

Fiddle I've seen the seaweed salad at costco and wondered how it tasted.. I've only had seaweed salad while at local sushi restaurant I really liked it.

It is really good, but do make sure you have the desire to eat it often because it is bulk from costco. More then once, I have had to throw out a 1/2 eaten container because I did not remember to eat it often enough. Overall, I highly recommend it for the tastiness!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
