My Iron level is very low. Just found out today. I'm taking Bariatric Advantage chewable but it seems that is not enough & they are thinking of giving me a prescription for a special kind of iron. I worked in the pharmacy business so this is not good news. I bought some broccoli tomorrow I want to make broccoli with cheese.

Does anyone know anything I can cook that has iron? I can eat steak and I stock my fridge with steak today. I want to have different meals. I was told to continue taking my Vitamins iron and Calcium.< /p>

To boost the amount of Iron in your diet, try these foods:

Red meat

Egg yolks

Dark, leafy greens (spinach, collards)

Dried fruit (prunes, raisins)

Iron-enriched cereals and grains (check the labels)

Mollusks (oysters, clams, scallops)

Turkey or chicken giblets

Beans, lentils, chick peas and soybeans

Liver

Artichokes

I eat spinach a lot and it goes down well and does not make me sick. I sautee it in a pan with lil olive oil, garlic and can't believe it's not butter. I can almost eat it as a meal.

I'm gonna have to try it. I had a little broccoli with cheese today. It was yummy but I could fit much. I'm hooked on crystal light iced tea.

      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.
