How brave are you feeling? LOL You could check with your doctor, but if you're feeling brave you could do it in tiny bites and go slowly.

I had 2 bites of a hotdog Friday. I didn't eat the skin and I nibbled those 2 bites down and chewed like I was crazy but it stayed down! I am 18 days post op.

I also had 2 bites of a beef hot dog yesterday at 18 days out. It went down ok. Like someone said, I chewed it to smithereens lol. I also had a a chicken sausage one day that I took the casing off of.

I'm a year out and can eat a hot dog, but I have to be in right frame of mind. Greasy food still can bother me so sometimes I prefer something with a little less fat and more Protein, such as turkey kielbasa, turkey smokey links, or a chicken sausage I tried the other day. The lowfat hotdogs I looked at didn't have enough Protein, but I just noticed Hebrew National has one with 6 grams of protein per frank. That works for me if they are not too big. I like to get close to 20 grams of protein per meal.

I loved hot dogs pre-op, but they don't sit well in my sleeve now. I can do a bite or two, but they are generally too greasy. I don't care for the lowfat or turkey dogs, so I just pass on them unless I don't have a choice.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
