Air Fryers----



Recommended Posts

I am not ready for solids yet, but am thinking about an Air Fryer for when I am.

Can you tell me if they are worth the investment? Would you recommend it? If so is there a better one than not?

Thanks---------

I appreciate your response. I know postings probably aren't meant for this, but in reducing calories I was looking for an appliance that would help me with this, when I am cooking again. I think I will buy one! Thanks again----------

I have one, I use it all the time, no oil needed, food taste delicious and crunchy, love to steam the sweet potatoes and then put them in the air fryer. Yummy.

Thanks for recommending this. My old deep fryer is just sitting on my counter and I know we have broken up but I haven't thrown him out yet. We should get an air fryer. Everyone seems to like them a lot and kids LOVE fries. Wondering how it does with chicken wings. At 2 mos out, I found I could still enjoy one chicken wing baked in oven (my old recipe) and eaten with hot sauce. What a delight that day was.

My parents were visiting when I was in my first week post-op, the air fryer was a big topic of conversation. We are from the south and love frying foods, so I was surprised to hear they cook nearly everything in a Big Boss Air Fryer. They love it, delicious food, quick easy cleaning. I am going to buy one off of Amazon here soon. Still on week 2 post-op, but looking ahead.

We were just talking about air fryers in our Bariatric Support group tonight. Everyone who has purchased one says it is well worth the price. The said it also helps them stave off any residual fast food cravings they are having because everything comes out so crispy.

That is something I could use then. Thank you.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
