Excessive Belching



Recommended Posts

No matter how much I eat or what I eat, I have excessive belching afterwards.

Anyone else have this problem?

I have went thru 3 boxes of gas-x in the past week and a half.

LOL. Yeah, my kids think it is funny. Specially when I get the hiccups with it. My hubby also thinks it is funny. I have always prided myself on being one that did not belch or pass gas infront of anyone. LOL. That pride went out the window. LOL. Just starts to hurt after about an hour of constant belching. Just wondering if this is normal or does it mean something.

SERIOUSLY!!!! Im kind of getting embarressed because im at work and my co workers can even hear me now, even though im burping with my mouth closed... I dont know what else to do... Are you still on liquids??? I switch to mushy foods tomorrow so hopefully that helps

I had my 2nd fill a week ago and since fill have been belching a lot, not sure why all the belching now. What I've read says it is due to eating too fast, swallowing air, drinking too much tea, coffee.

I wasn't hungry at all after surgery, but as soon as I had the 1st fill it was like a switch went off and I was hungry and have had no problem eating anything I want. Yes, I can't eat as much without getting uncomfortable, thank goodness. I asked the P.A. who does my fill to give me a bigger fill but he said they don't like to do more than 1 1/2 cc on 1st and 2nd fill. I hope my 3rd fill helps more. I know it has to be in my head and that if I eat carbs, I'll crave carbs. I don't think I'm drinking enough Water so maybe that is my problem. I need to get myself back on track. I haven't really started working out either. I need to tell myself that I like to work out, that I have to work out if I want to win this war with myself. All I've done so far is buy a pair of sneakers. I'm sure they fit, if I would just put them on.

That is exactly how I am. I have been soooo hungry the past two weeks. I hate it. The scale goes down two pounds and up two pounds. I am not getting anywhere.

Reading your post, I had to double check and make sure I was not reading my own. LOL.

I do walk, not as much as I would like. I have a treadclimber but everytime I get on it my little ones start asking for stuff.

I go for my 2nd fill today. I hope they make it tighter. I had no problems the week before my first fill. It is like they took too much out.

I need to find someone close by that I can team up with.

I would like to go to the support groups, but they only have them once a month and it is not convienent. My husband works evening and I have 3 kids.

Looking for another group.

I wish you luck.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
