Belching like a frat boy post op?

Okay, I knew there would be gas, but didn't realize with every sip or tiny bite of anything I take comes about 20 belches.Seriously I would win the frat boy competition. I've probably walked at least a mile and a half today, took in 66oz liquids, 60oz Protein, a few bites of Soup, applesauce and was sleeved 3 days ago on the 30th.

Probably TMI but I've only farted 5 times post of and finally had a bowel movement today. Still...the belching continues.

So, my question is should I sign up for a frat now because I'm going to be in burping hell for next to forever or did any of y'all have it and have it go away (and if so, when)? :blink:

I hope it ends up going away for us soon! I burped throughout my entire pregnancy and then as soon as I delivered my kiddo, it was gone. Now I have a sleeve and nothing to deliver so hoping for some elusive end date.

I managed a mile and a half by breaking it up into 3-4 chunks throughout the day. I think if I did it all at once i would be WAYYY too winded. It also helped that I've been chasing a dog and a toddler and they are wily and fast!

Don't worry, the belching goes away. It took about 4 days to get it out of my system. Just be happy it's not coming out that end. For about a week I was waking up around 1:30am every morning with the gas coming out the other end. The amount was quite impressive. I'm just glad it happened at home and not at work. :D

You just motivated me to get moving more. My kids are older so nobody to chase.

Good luck with everything!

Lol @ passing gas. Yes, I am thankful the gas is moving up north instead of heading down south. So glad to hear that it goes away eventually!

      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.

        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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
