This may be tmi - but every time I eat for about 30 minutes after I am just burping all the time.:)

Beginning to get on my nerves as well as my husbands.:angry:

Have tried slowing down and smaller bites but still the same.

I am a month post-op and on normal food - albeit small amounts.

Think the sleeve is fab - have lost 30lbs since my consult date in March, 23 of those since the surgery.

Just want to know if the burping issue passes?

yep me too...in the beginning it was all the time..all day every day. Now it's pretty much just after I eat...my husband started calling me toad. It's pretty much become a joke around here and at my office.

me too! LOL

It must just be part of the deal : ) for me, it is mainly after I eat. Some people have said before that they thought it was a signal that they were full.

It is mostly annoying if I am out to eat or with other people. It does disappear after the meal settles.

I am hoping it eventually goes away tho!

I'm jealous, I haven't a good satisfying burp since my surgery. Maybe thats cuz I don't have soda anymore.:)

It just means you are full. Maybe one bite too many. We get weird signals post op. Some people get runny noses, I sneeze when I am too full. The surgeon told me that preop but I thought it sounded nutty, til it started happening to me.

Me too! It is either a burp or a very, very loud hiccup! I am only a 1 1/2 weeks out, and it not very encouraging that it will continue....

Thanks all - just glad I am not alone with some weird and unique side effect!

Hopefully it will go over time and interested that it may be a sign I am full - think I'll stop eating at the first sign of a burp and see how that goes!

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
