I am 17 days post op and on day 3 of soft foods. I am allowed 4 tbsp 4 times a day. About 2 tbsp in each meal, I start belching excessively. Is this my "full" sign? I have been stopping at this point and do feel satisfied at this point. Does this happen to anyone else?

I think that is your "full" signal. I tend to get the hiccups when I'm at or near capacity. Many people here have the same signals...burping, hiccups and even sneezing.

belching excessively. "full" sign? happen to anyone else?

justforme

yes

many/most/all people get some sort of "sign" like your belching

first time it happened to me - my daughter called from GA (I live in NY)

she said "mom was that you?)

kidding

but, my DH could always hear me in the other room and we both laughed

good for you on stopping when you get a "signal" - feeling satisfied and not "pushing" it

continued good luck

keep up the good job

speedy recovery

kathy

congrats
