I've never been a gassy person. Never. No burps. No toots. Well, occasionally, but very infrequent. I have never been able to understand that "pull my finger" thing. I thought it was ridiculous. No one could really do that on command.

Well, I could now. If you pulled my finger at 5:50 a.m.

It's just one of those things I've noticed. Pretty much from the day I started back on full food I start my day off with a toot. I was taking an OTC acid reducer before surgery so I don't think that's the difference. And it never happened while on liquids or puree. The funny thing about it is that it's exactly the same every day. One and done.

Okay, kids, tomorrow we'll discuss my new found ability to burp.

I have noticed a lot more bout of gas since. Sometimes requiring some gas x help. It is getting better now so it must be something to healing and the body getting used to food, better food and digesting it.

I am just the opposite, pre op I was a gassy mess, all day long, burping and tooting! Post op almost nothing, if I toot well make sure the path to the bathroom is clear, LOL, if I burp its cause I'm done eating or so my sleeve is telling me so.
