Try to keep away from processed lunch meat like bologna. Have Roast beef or sliced smoked turkey. Also, you don't have to just think "lunch meat anymore." You can either cook up a fresh whole chicken or buy a whole cooked chicken from the market and slice it up for your lunch or supper. It's much better tasting and healthier than lunch meat. If you like fish --- use salmon or sole or shrimp. You can make up your own meatballs and freeze them and take them out as you need them (do not buy meatballs ready made from the store because they are full of filler). If you are keeping your carbs pretty low -- you can use ham or sausages. As cool weather comes along --- take a nice thermos of thick stew or chili. Also --- make extra food for supper and take it the next day for lunch.

Tuna/chicken/egg salad with whole wheat crackers is always a winner!

Also baby carrots dipped in hummus is awesome. Best of luck!

I bought these little containers where you put the lid in the freezer, so anything you put in stays cold. Thy are from Wal-Mart in the back to school section.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
