i just started eating beef jerkey - i luv it

10 grams of Protein - 7 grams of carb

what stage are you in. are you a new sleever?

liquids,liquds, mushy stage, soft stage - no beef jerkey

then you'll be on solids and beef jerkey is fine

someone included link to a great websight that you could buy beef jerkey on line

if anyone could post that or something similar - i would appreciate

thanx

LOVE my beef jerkey!

I eat it 2-4 times/week. I eat about 1 8oz package every 3 meals. Started about week 8.

I love, love, love the Trader Joes Jerky. Its soft and comes in 3 flavors (peppered, teryaki, original) and has no hard or muscle-y bits. Im sure the Turkey jerky would be healthier- but I cant stand it.

You can also get Oberto jerky at costco in the smaller "snack" packs that are good for Portion Control and on-the-go sizes.

I have tried it but find it really sweet. I don't know why that is.

I absolutely love beef Jerky. I buy different brands and the ones I usually buy are 15g of Protein per serving, low fat, and very low carb. Almost perfect for a sleever really.

And I just remembered I started eating it at about 3 months out but I bet some people can tolerate it sooner if they can tolerate steak. For some reason I just didn't try it before then.

I started eating it about 2.5 months out. I can a few normal sized chunks. Careful early on if you eat it to fast its a good way to get "the slimes" eek

you can make your own jerkey. :) they sell jerkey mixes and you can read recipes online or buy recipe books for making jerkey. it's fairly simple.. just need a dehydrator. :)

doing that could save you some money, too.. cause you can buy meat when it's on sale & make tons of jerkey :)

These are the ones we usually use. They have all kinds and sell wholesale. The also have exotic types.

http://www.tennesseejerky.com/

This site is basically a competitor of the first so price wars sometimes happen with them.

http://www.bulkbeefjerky.com/

This is more of a retail one but they have other products also.

Hope that helps you.

Should I worry at all about the sodium in it?

You are right, it is an awesome choice!

I waited a few months before trying Jerky but I love it and it is fine with my stomach. I like the jack links because it is softer.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
