yes, I am also very supprised you can use a straw. My surgeon says NO straws for life!! I know by using straws it can cause alot of bubbles in your sleeve. And maybe thats where some of your burping is coming from. I hope it gets better soon. For me I barley ever burp anymore since the surgery.
My surgeon says I should get 8oz in per hr. But when I was just a few weeks out that was very hard for me and still is today and I am 8weeks out. I should be getting at least 40oz in today.
I totally know how you feel. My cholesterol was in normal range before I had surgery and last week had it re-tested and it was high. I am so frustrated and don't understand how it's possible because I'am eating barley anything.
