Strange question....need feedback



Recommended Posts

Okay, does anyone else have gas really bad that you burp/belch? The last 2-3 days has been really bad. I open my mouth and woops...I belch. Not very lady like either! My husband asked if I drank a soda or something. And I haven't had a soda in a year and a half! hahaha

I have a 10cc band with 6.5 in it. I got a fill a week ago, it's been pretty tight. Eat small amount now every 3-4 hours and been drinking plenty of Fluid. So much Fluid that I get the hiccups all the time.

Anyone else have the burping? Thanks!

I burp much more frequently since having lap band. I also hiccup when I drink too fast and when I am getting to the point where I need to stop eating! Like you, my burps just seem to come out, without any warning! I think that it is pretty common :)

Not a strange question at all! Yes, I get burps out of the blue, and the hiccups a lot. Not quite 2 weeks post op so I haven't yet figured out what they are signaling, if anything.

Burping is my soft-stop signal. Meaning when I'm eating and start burping, I better stop or at least slow waaaaaayyyy down or else the next thing I know I'm over full or stuck.

I think with gastric surgery, increased noises are the norm. :)

I too hiccup when getting near the "full" mark. The other night I had regular hiccups, not food related, and my 9 year old niece said, "Uh-Oh". I asked her why she said that and she said that once you start the hiccups, then you get sick.... I felt bad and did not realize it was so obvious to her.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
