So I'm just thinking that it's me but does anyone else hiccup after they eat. It started after getting my band and it's really annoying plus a little embarrassing. Let me know if it happens to you!

I do sometimes. It's usually my bodies way of telling me to slow down.

I get hiccups after almost every meal. They usually start about 5 minutes after I stop eating. I know that it would be trouble to eat any more. If they are particularly violent, I know I ate too much.

When I start to hiccup, it's a reminder that I need to start paying attention. If I continue eating, it can get pretty messy! I've heard it called a "soft stop" reminder on one of the other lap band sites and I think thats a great way to see it. You aren't in a "stuck" situation, but you could be headed for trouble if you don't slow down or even stop eating. Just my opinion...

I can't use my hiccups as a soft stop because they are delayed and only start after I am done eating. I guess I could wait 5 minutes between bites, but that is kind of hard. I'm continueally looking for other soft stops to pay attention to though.

I get hiccups after the fact too. Little bit annoying, but I guess a good reminder.

I hiccup 3 times after eating. I also take this as a sign to stop. It's odd though, because it is only 3x's. I've been doing this for the last 3 months since I've gotten good restriction.

I am on week 3 of being banded and I have noticed that almost immediately after my meal, I do one hiccup/burp combo. It doesn't happen every time, but happens if I have eaten too fast I think. I have wondered what it means as well. I'm glad to hear that it's common.

I get them when I eat to fast. I've also learned that I can't talk while eating, seems I take in too much air and have both hiccups and burbing episodes.

Yup...the hiccups always come when I have eaten too much or too fast. Slow down and eat less, and I bet they will go away.
