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 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.wink.gif

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
