When I chew gum or eat hard candy I burp a lot. It doesn't matter what time of day it is. I wonder am I getting to much air in my stomach.

I burp giant burps now. I don't think it matters what I've eaten. <<<Me burping LOL

Chewing gum, take air in, and that's why you burp, but I think who ever was banded burps alot.......................................

i agree. I constantly burp.. My hubby thinks its funny.. I however think that its embarrassing. Especially if i'm belching while i'm talking and there's no warning!

I also burp alot now...and there long ones...feels good to let it out!!! :rolleyes:

I can't comment about the gum chewing (WERE NOT ALLOWED TO DO IT) (FEAR IT MIGHT SLIP DOWN!)

But burping is a very good sign it means that nothing is hung up, and you can feel the air come up from the stomach all the way up. That means your clean, and good to go. Get stuck, and you will wish you were Burping.

Thats good to know. I was stuck once. I ate a dont hole and it got stuck. I did a few dry swallows but it didn't move, so I did a no no and sipped some water. Omg! Everything I ate came back up. I'm glad I burp now lol...

I burp A LOT these days, too. I kinda burp after I eat by choice since I've been banded, like a baby, lol and am not surprised by burps, lol.

Burping is a soft stop "signal" that you've had enough to eat! When I start burping, I know I am 1 or 2 bites away from misery if I continue Sometimes I wait a little and then start eating again if I really haven't eaten that much. I think of burps as the band talking to me and telling me to put down the fork!

Ya the burping. Long deep ones. lol. It is a bit embarassing at times. 
