i know this subject has been brought up before, i just don't remember the answer, sorry. I seem to frequently "belch" during the day. I'm just eating a protein bar now, only about 1/2 way through, and I belched. Does anyone else have that feeling? Does this mean i am supposed to stop eating cuz i am tecnically full cuz i belched? thanx kathy

that is how i know when i have had too much to eat or drink. i belch like a man.

hi brandy - do you stop eating then, after you belched? Hating that word now.even if you are 1/2 way through your "permitted" portion? I feel silly asking this question cuz i'm not a newbie. All this time have i been eating too much? it doesn't seem too much, but maybe i was overeating! oh no - help

I find that I belch if I ate too fast, so I just slow up a bit and am able to finish my meal.

I stop eating at that point....also, i am still trying to control how fast i eat...so that may be part of my problem.

HEY! On behalf of men everywhere I resent that remark

Yep, the poor little swollen sleeve has no where to release the gas as it's packed full of food so UP it comes. Normally a lot of this gas producing action would be passed on to the intestines where some is adsorbed and some is, well, you know, passed the OTHER way.

The pouch is pretty NON flexible due to it's size and the band of thicker tissue at the top and new scar tissue along the side and bottom from the operation so the gas has to go SOMEWHERE so let it rip. Unless you sound like Will Ferrell did in the movie ELF after he drank a full 2 liter bottle of Coke then you should be OK

It lessens with time but never really goes away. Hiccups are another common problem when getting full. Just eat slower and eat LESS - which is what we're all after anyway!
