It's a soft stop for some.

I get them really bad - usually on the first bite or two and it's not always from not chewing or eating too fast as I've gotten them on mushies too.

I've never PB'ed but I'm sure I'd rather have hiccups then that. The hiccups are a sure sign to me to remember to slow down and after a few minutes I resume eating and everything is fine.

The only thing is if you're in a restruant and they get really loud it can be embarrassing. I guess I shouldn't care but people look at me like I need assistance like Im choking or something.

I usually get a single hiccup when I have had just enough to eat. It is like a sign to stop eating for me. I have ignored it before and kept eating and been sorry cause then I developed a PB (painful and not any fun). I don't get hiccups every time, just occasionally.

I get the hiccups if I eat too fast or sometimes when I've had enough to eat. I don't get them every time, but just once in a while. It's kind of my cue to stop eating and listen to the signals my body is sending. For example, if I get them early in my meal, I was probably eating too fast. If I get them later in my meal, it's time to stop, period, end of story.

Another "soft stop" for me is that my nose will run. If my nose starts running, it's time to stop and think "have I had enough to eat?" "am I satisfied?" "am I still hungry?".

      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.

        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!
