Jack link's meat sticks



Recommended Posts

They're really high in sodium, but if your nutritionist doesn't have an issue with it and you're on solid food then it should be fine.

I have the small packets of his Beef Jerky all the time. Really high Protein, low in calories and portable.

Obviously not until you are approved for solid food but yes. Low calorie, high Protein and very portable foods make some of the best choices for Snacks and that certainly fits the bill. Just watch the sodium if that’s a concern for you.

beef jerkey like that i eat all the time. Tho you need to look at the label most of those sticks are not 1 serving but typically 2-5 servings which really sucks lmao

I like Stubbs ones too, as well as the Takis meat sticks...in the absence of other options, jerky/meat Snacks can be a lifesaver.

If you happen upon Epic Bars, they're sort of a similar thing but they're softer and have about half as much salt (I LOVE the bison cranberry ones).

I ride a motorcycle and sometimes when I stop, the choices at the gas station are pretty slim pickins but almost every gas station has Jerky. (I wouldn't make them too regular of an indulgence because, as others have said, they're quite high in sodium...but in a pinch you could do worse!)

I have beef Jerky packs in my desk at work for the days I'm not up to pack a lunch or running after work. You will need to be on solid food and like the others said watch the sodium.

      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!
