    Steve, if I drink any kind of carbonated drink, I pour it in a cup over ice to get rid of the bubbles. If I don't, I get the unfortunate results you mentioned. :)

    Yes Shirley.. I can do that to get rid of the gs, however it has been almost 8 months since I had a carbonated drink and I don't miss it at all.. Life can easily go on without having extra gas in my stomach..
    Fruit juice like apple juice or cranberry juice is much more appreciated.. I also like just plain cold water..

    As far as farting goes, I will always have to get rid of the gas somehow and if I can't burp, the only other exit is out the tusch by a fart.. So be it !!!

    I bought some fermented cabbage to try which I love anyway.. It seems to agree with me and I don't have any more gas than I would have anyway.. The only thing is I find it very salty.. I bought the sour kraut in a wine sauce..
    I also bought some broccoli that I will steam and try it over the week-end.. Hopefully it too will agree with me..
    I now am starting to increase my food items.. Next, if the broccoli agrees, will be cauliflower..

    I tried having one of those ... Ensure ... supplement drinks to try to help me get some extra needed nutrition and vitamins in me..
    I was told by my doctor after the operation NOT to take any of those supplements for a while as they contain some stuff in them that my stomach lining can't take.. I thought after 7 months it would be OK........
    BOY WAS I EVER WRONG..!!!
    It burned my stomach lining that it felt like I just drank fire... The burning lasted for a few hours and then went away, but the doctor was right, not to take any of those supplements.. No more.. I will just continue on eating healthy like I am doing and maintain my weight like it is.......

    It was too windy to BBQ, so I ended up putting the thighs in a loaf pan with some honey/garlic sauce and baked them...

    We went to Sudbury and we went to Walmart where I bought a BBQ chicken..
    That bird will feed us for 2 meals which one was last night and the other is tonight..
    I like the dark meat while Annmarie likes the breast which is perfect for us...
    Steamed veggies goes well with BBQ chicken...
