kml0913 got a reaction from SassyNanny in Regain
Hello Lena- I as well am an oldie. I had surgery about 13 years ago and put on about 70 pounds from my lowest. Tomorrow I am going to start the 5 day. Do you want to join me?

I had a RNY in 2002 & I lost 132 pounds and now I've also regained about 70. I went to a different surgeon as my original has since retired. He gave me a barium swallow right in his office and it was determined that my pouch was fine but the opening at the bottom of my stomach wasn't small anymore. He did a revision surgery on me yesterday cinching that opening back down to 1 cm. not sure if any of that helps you but I thought I would share so you'd know you aren't alone.

kml0913 reacted to Djmohr in Does burping mean my pouch is full?
For me (bypass), if it's a burp stuck it is usually because I am eating too fast and hit hurts like hell. It usually causes me to be done eating period. Even after the burp finally moves. It literally just happened to me tonight.
I know I will have to have a snack later. Bariatricpal hot chocolate it is!
If I eat nice and slow and then hicup or sigh, that usually is a sign of being full. Over time you will simply know by feel again.
In the beginning, that sigh or hiccup meant stop right now, you are full.
