Is this something we can have?  I am sure it is not the best choice, but I have been craving this for over a week.
Thanks Ena

I don't know if it would be the best thing this early out, certainly not the regular kind of hot dog.  If you really want to try one, get the fat free chicken or turkey kind or a vegetarian hot dog.  Cut it up and chew the hell out of it.  I am about 3 1/2 years out and on the rare occasion I eat one, it makes me sick and it does NOT sit well in my pouch.  I have tried fat free kind and IMO they are plain ole GROSS LOL.   Sometimes the craving (the fantasy) is better than the reality.

regular hot dogs have tomuch fat like 16gms in 1 dog. Dietz &Watson & ball Park make a low fat and a fat free hot dog. I prefer the low fat dogs

About once a month I`ll get a craving for a Richard`s, a Johnny`s, an Abe`s or a Jimmy`s dog. I get one dog, chew chew chew and have no ill effects. Sometimes I only eat a third or half.

If you're able to handle soft foods now, get a FF hot dog, skip the bun, top as desired, then chew it like crazy and you should be fine.

You may be a little early out for that as others had said - but then again - you are on regular food now, right?  I definately agree with norm and the others...ditch the bun, choose good toppings, and DEFINATELY get something like a low fat or chicken hot dog.  They are readily available in most grocery stores.  I think I have used the Ballpark brand which are pretty good

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.

I think the Ballpark FF stink!  But the Hebrew National as well as the Dietz and Watson are really good!!  If you want something - try it and see how it works for you.  Of course, no bun and I don't even do toppings, just a dog is plenty.

Thank You for all your insights.  I will hold off as long as I can.  I will use one of the better choices, with no bun of course, maybe a little mustard.
Thanks Ena

I agree with the no bun, and Hebrew National or Nathan's, as they do not have sugar in them, and I believe one of them has a low-fat version.  They use better quality beef, and no sugar, and I prefer the taste.

Wait as long as you can, and chew well.

Hugs,
Trish
