  1. Just a little advice from someone who KNOWS....Never, never, never, eat the cake! It takes about 1 min. and the vomiting starts. You might as well have soaked white bread in milk and ate it whole. Major pain and vomiting! My nurse said if you have to taste... frosting is way better. I was banded in March of 2009. I just hit 5 months banded and I am down 80 pounds. You can do this, it is worth it! You will all get to the point where you can eat soon. There are many websites that have diet foods that taste good and are low calorie, including pizza.
  2. Good News, you are completely normal! My doctor explained to me that the stomach pouch contains air. When the food or liquids go down into the pouch that air has to go somewhere. It will either be a burp or end up as gas on the other end. It is completely normal.
