Kindle 8,667 Posted November 28, 2015 (edited) If you are approved for solid, dense foods then sure. I didn't start eating it until about 4 months out, but Jerky is now a staple food item for me....beef, elk, turkey, bison and even bacon jerky. I Eat it several times/week.

freelee 128 Posted November 29, 2015 Started eating Jerky at 5 months. I don't eat it as often as I'd like because I think the high sodium sometimes hinders my weight loss. But I love it, especially the flavored ones. I try to buy them at costco to keep the cost down, as my husband can eat a boatload of it, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liannatx 897 Posted November 29, 2015 I eat jersey a lot! I started at about 6 months post op as well. Is this like Jersey beef! I love this typo... lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cutwater 41 Posted November 29, 2015 Before surgery I loved it, but since then not so much. I think my increased sensitivity to sodium has turned me off to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dub 9,922 Posted November 29, 2015 Jerky is great......but can be super high in sodium. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
songsmith 334 Posted November 29, 2015 Jerky is on the approved list with my surgeon once patients hit solid food. I'm pre-op, so afraid I can't offer any advice on incorporating it into a post-op diet. More importantly, they make bacon jerky?!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
axlr8n 161 Posted November 29, 2015 I like jerkey too (been eating it since 8 weeks out), but dumped on some yesterday... Guess I have to read the ingredients more carefully. I normally stick with plain or peppered, but ate some Terriyaki jerkey yesterday that had a lot of sugar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sophie74656 1,572 Posted November 29, 2015 I just saw bacon Jerky at Cracker Barrel today. bacon jerky is awesome. It's more moist than beef jerky and the bits of fat can be a bit chewy, but it tastes so good I got myself a box like this, I could eat one for a meal http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B9GUZP4?keywords=jerky%20jack%20links&qid=1448830250&ref_=sr_1_4&sr=8-4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
