I burp too regularly after eating and I'm 20 months out.. I take it as a sign that I'm full/possibly eating one spoonful too much - I've had hiccups also - watch that he isn't eating/drinking too fast also.

Agree with Selena Hay - hiccups, burping, runny nose are signs you are over full, and ate just a little too much. It means you have so much food stuffed in your stomach that your vagus nerve is irritated. I get a runny nose as my "overfull" reminder to eat slower and eat less next time.

I came on this morning to find out about hiccups because I have been getting them quite often. I have a follow up with my surgeon tomorrow and will find out for sure sheet they're all about.. One thing for sure is that yeah they're much more annoying than before being slewed.

I get hiccups too! I take it as my sign to stop eating.

could also be a vagal nerve stimulation, which is a nerve running right around our stomachs. not unusual, and happens when the stomach is 'full'.

i had hiccups terribly right after surgery but it let up within a couple days!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
