Since they r high in sodium do they make u retain fluids. they r 0 carbs 9 Proteins but I assume they r fried. They really satisfy a snack plus make U drink more Water. I had my sleeve in Mexico do I don't hsvr a Nut to ask. Just wondered ig anyone else have eaten them since being sleeved.

You COULD eat them, but I assume they're fatty and salty as hell, like chips.

Should you eat them? My guess is no.

I do splurge and have them on occasions. It's important to know that the Protein in Pork rinds is not a significant source of protein tho. once in awhile wont hurt u, I just wouldnt eat them everyday.

Pork rinds.< /p>

Salty, fried goodness, but too rich for me. Sleeve definitely didn't like them.

What I've been doing for a crunchy, savory snack is making kale chips myself. You can find lots of recipes online and control the sodium yourself. It's a great fall vegetable, just fyi, packed with Vitamin C and other goodness.

Hope that helps ...

Pork rinds...YUM!! Yes you can have Pork rinds if your sleeve tolerates them. They are a good snack and just fine if you don't have to watch your sodium intake due to heart problems, etc. And they are fried, but you do need some fat intake to help you absorb your fat-soluable Vitamins. Moderation in everything should be your general rule for living with your sleeve. Also bear in mind that although pork rinds are all Protein, no carbs, there is not a lot of nutrition in them either.

      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.
