I eat hot dogs from time to time. I buy the all beef kind. I'm not going to pretend that I'm better than others cause I don't eat hot dogs! Jeesh. I waited until 3 months out. I usually skip the bun or part if it.

I love how they taste with lots of mustard, but they are so full of sulfites that I don't even eat the turkey ones that are 40 calories each anymore.

I use to eat hot dogs before my surgery, as a matter of fact I loved them. But know I can't stand the smell of them, so I don't eat them.

My first thought was, "why would you want to eat hot dogs?" before I saw the free part.

Like Crazy Geno, I'd skip 'em. Free isn't a good enough reason. Brats might be a little different story, but that would be a rare exception ;)

I doubt I could eat more than half of a standard hot dog (wiener with bun and condiments). And even that would be a real challenge.

Personally, I'd throw away the bun and Condiments, then slice up the wiener and mix it into a single-serving can of pork 'n Beans and make Beanie Weenie out of it. The sodium and fat would be higher than what's ideal, but the Fiber and Protein would be pretty good.

At work we get them for free just wondering

I ate veggies hotdogs at 6 weeks with no bun. Went down fine - good source of non-meat Protein.

At 7 weeks out, I did have some the other day. It was all beef and very salty to me. I was only able to eat half. It is very heavy. Not going there again any time soon.

i am 16 wks and had one yesterday for breakfast! it was an all beef one, from a local butcher. NO nitrates or nitrites, no preservatives. very fresh, no 'snap' casing either.

it was awesome with mustard. they are a VERY occasional treat. only the 2nd one i've had since surgery. it was really good, but i have changed so much about how i eat that i would really only eat them a few times a year now...

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
