I know you can bake them up and we have done this, but I specifically want your thoughts about this product and eating them as a light snack post op.

I just tried some and OMG, they are so good and definitely a slider.

Trader Joe's has some of the oddest, but fantastic foods.

Kale chips with sunflower seeds & Cashews on them...weird. ha!

(Sorry I have nothing useful to add..I'm still pre-sleeve). Nutrition wise I think they'd be great...but how does your sleeve do with nuts? Ever had any issues with sunflower seeds or Cashews? If not, I don't see why this wouldn't be a good healthy option.

Fiddleman,

I haven't tried them, I make my own. They look good!

I have never tried them, but for me, I could probably eat the whole bag in a sitting which would be 300 calories. I have made my own kale chips. A bit of work but super delicious!

Hey Fiddleman, do you like seaweed Snacks?

They look like a nice treat food.. I make my own kale chips.. I'm looking to invest in a food dehydrator to see if I can get them a bit more crispy. when I cook them in a slow oven, the thin bits over cook before the thicker bits get crispy.

Yup, we grow Kale and make chips using our oven and a number of savory spices. My wife came home with these a couple days ago, so wanting to see if anyone has some experience with these.

Yeah, the slider nature of these yummy kale chips concerns me a little.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
