Hi All, I Will be six weeks out tomorrow and have been doing well. I did have a UTI last week (I am prone to them) and was treated by my PCP with a five day course of antibiotics. I was feeling better until today...I felt nauseous all day. I did have a small piece of filet mignon last night (2 ounces) and chewed it well and than had two Apple slices afterwards. I'm wondering if I feel this way due to the food or the UTI or maybe even a stomach virus that seems to be going around. I was just wondering if Anyone else have trouble with these foods at this stage? Thanks.

I think its the beef. I love steak and have had it. But it does sit heavier in my tummy than other things.

Ohh, as for the UTI, I got one the week right after surgery. Ugh! Make sure you keep your Water up (I know its hard). But I have also started taking cranberry pills - don't do cranberry pills from natures bounty (which is what I have). THose pills are huge! Also up your yogourt. I try to eat yogourt for lunch. I also use greek yogourt for chicken salad instead of mayo.< /p>

Thanks all... Feeling better today. I think I am tired of the lack of variety in my diet but every time I try to add something new it doesn't always agree with me. I do believe it was the steak also, any suggestions for non-complicated interesting food at this stage would be appreciated. I'm not much of a cook and get discouraged with all these receipes with 12 ingredients. I shouldn't complain as I am doing well, no complications, speedy recovery and 30 lbs. lost! I'm just bored with my food. I am afraid that if I don't spice it up I will be tempted to look to junk foods. Someone suggested these new home delivery programs that ship nutritious ingredients and receipes to your door for you to prepare. Anyone tried them? I am not overly concerned with calories as my stomach only holds very small amounts before I am full, So a 1/4 cup of food is usually pretty low cal! Okay I'm done. Thanks for listening.

      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.
