Hot Dogs
Cased meat was specifically listed as a NO on my early post op plan from the doctor/NUT. I think it is probably because of the high fat, low 'good stuff' ratio as well as the denseness and casing??
I have had a bite or two of sausage since my surgery (like 9+ months out) and it didn't settle so well for me.
*shrug*
What about some higher quality grilled meat? Chicken or steak? Heck even fish is great grilled!!

Forgive me if I sound harsh but isn't that the exact mentality and rationalizations that led us to getting so fat we needed surgery? Not only that, depending on how far out you are, it could make you very sick or worse. What do you want more,a long healthy life or a piece of a hotdog that you'll be regretting later anyways. How far out from surgery are you?
Just saw we were sleeved the same day, you should be on full liquids or at the most......mushies so no, do not risk it. I couldn't even imagine trying that this soon out. Hubby grilled dogs for lunch and I ate my cream of wheat and tonight they are having breakfast and I will have Brits. You need to educate hour husband on just what can happen if you eat the wrong stuff right now so that when you go to him to validate what you want to do, he will know if you should or not.
I appreciate your feedback. I wondered if it was too soon to try a hot dog. There's nothing specificially stating I can't have them, but I wasn't sure if I should.
And yes, I thought as I typed "since it's a holiday" that I was making an excuse. I actually appreciate you guys keeping me accountable. I will pack a Muscle Milk and yogurt to take with me.
ps- my husband does have a medical degree.
