I normally get 90 to 95 percent fat free hamburger and have "gas" must time after I eat it. Does anyone else have this problem?

Very little DOESN'T give me gas post surgery...but yes beef, does to me also!

I agree with lovetoquilt.... I get gas from almost everything I eat... Especially any kind of meat....

hamburger is like the only thing I can handle right now. meat wise.

My NUT didn't let me have hamburger tlll the 3rd month. I have eaten a little and did ok. Fat makes me ill. So I am very careful that the burger is well drained.
Burger joint burgers are too greasy!
Have had some meat loaf and meatballs. Did ok with small amounts. We use farm raised beef that is very well trimmed and lean and deer that is very fat free.
LOL! Gas is and was a real deal with me. (Bad Reputation here!). I can't see as burger makes it any better or worse.
I am 4 months post surgery. My NUT tells me I am no on what she calls and "as tolerated" diet. I can eat refried beans with habenareo, but don't do fats very well.

I meant to say my NUT says I am "now" on an as tolerated diet.

I am almost six months out and like some of the replies I always get gas no matter what I eat, Hamburger I can tolerate very little so I do not eat much of it. I have actually come to prefer the ground turkey burgers.
