What does everyone think about those new Air Fryers that are all over the place these days?

Next week I will be 3 months post-op & to date I have stayed away from ALL fried foods... I have no issues cutting up a sweet potato & making myself a few fries by baking them in the oven, but I keep seeing Ads for these fryers & I really want to know if I'm getting suckered or if it would be a good purchase.

Thoughts?

I looked up hundreds of reviews last night on Walmart.com. Apparently, they're the real deal. Especially the Farber brand. I'm going to get one myself.

I love mine. Cooking time is a lot less than a regular oven & If u follow it's instructions, the meat comes out tender.

I tend to overcook my meat a bit (not on purpose, just bad at gauging cooking times) , but my NUT suggested that i use a condiment to moisten up, since we can't drink while we eat.

My wife bought me this for the holidays. It works very well, the meat is nice and tender.

Next holiday season I am going to buy her a Sawzall. :)

Just an update... I ended up buying one & I absolutely love it. I probably use it 4-5 days each week! So easy & absolutely NO oil!!!

      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!
