I noticed recently that my pee is a little stinky. Could this be another sign of not enough Water? Peeuuu. Sorry if its TMI. Anyone else have this?

Vitamins! If I have a day where I forget to take them, I have noticed that smell goes away!! Also if you eat low carbs, and are in ketosis, that's another reason for the odd smell.

Vitamin B will give it a neon yellow color initially and also an odor...but the more Water you drink throughout the day, the less smelly and yellow it becomes. If your urine is stinky all day, that is a sign of not enough fluids and really does not have much to do with the Vitamins. My urine is normally VERY neon the 1st pee of the day after I have taken my vitamins, but then I go about once an hour due to how much water I drink and by lunchtime, it is nearly clear and odorless ;) Working in the lab at my office, I see many urine samples come through...and I can tell who drinks fluids and who doesn't...ICK!

      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.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
