Different people have different full signals. Some hiccup, some sneeze, some sigh.I believe it has something to do with pressure either on one of the nerves or possibly the diaphragm. Learning to recognise your signal so that you don't overeat can help save you a lot of discomfort.

Very true mine was my nose would run, if I start to hiccup I have eatten too much and will more than likely be sick very soon. I think learning these signs really helped my success in the band.

I get the hiccup and runny nose, sometimes by then it is too late and I am gonna be sick, but sometimes it just means stop now!

irritation of the nerves of the diaphragm...any clue to stop eating is a good clue!

Runny nose here too. I just realised I haven't had one in months. Plus I've been about to burp again, something I haven't been able to do for about 2 years. My band's been loose so maybe it's time to see my dr again, just to check in.

I sneeze too, but only once. I generally sneeze in two's, so if we are eating and I sneeze once, my hubby looks over and says "Oops! Guess you are done" LOL If I drink something cold too quickly or too big of a gulp I will get hiccups. Isn't it wonderful!! :-)

      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.

      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!
