Hi Everybody,

I've seen posts refer to PBing, but I'm not sure I understand what that means. Could someone explain this to me. I'm nearly four weeks post-surgery but haven't had any fills yet, hence no restriction. Still fairly new to this endeavor, my pre-op education never used this term.

thanks

i like your screen name!

I'm not 100% sure, but I think it means "progressive burping"

PBing is productive burping. When you get stuck to the point the food needs to come back up. At first it feels like you need to throw up, but you're really just burping up the food that is stuck. It is the most uncomfortable feeling when it's going to happen, but then you feel a million times better when it's over. At least that's how it has been the couple times it happened to me.

OH -- It's burping up food? Not just burping air 100x in an hour?
