I was sleeved on March 4th. I'm doing great but I get my liquid in but then spend 15 minutes burping. Is this going to get better?

It gets better but if I eat too fast or one bite too much I still end up having the "little burps" for about five minutes. I'm over four months post op.

Sounds like your eating too much. That's the only time I get the burps!

I burp when I eat too fast so if your like me, you will always burp. ????

I've not been able to get in all my water or protein since I came home on 3/5.

My first few weeks post-op, I was burping with every single sip of water. That got MUCH better a few weeks post-op. I'm still probably a bit more burpy than I was pre-op, but nothing at all like those first couple of weeks!

That's exactly what I mean -after every single sip. Thanks JamieLogical.

I still burp FAR more than I'd like, but it's slowly getting better each day. I'm doing much much better than I was at day 4, day 4 was belch-city. It gets better, now at 3.5 wks out, I'd say it's manageable if unpleasant and really, I'm only just barely out.

Man, I still do (4 months post-op) it's not very lady like but it sure makes me feel better! I also have a burp-hickup mix that lets me know I'm full I like that because it's a sign to stop!

One week out and I am with you. The burps are painful too. Can't get the recommended water in yet. Guess the sleeve is still too swollen.

It takes a minute to work up to getting in the minimum of 60gms of protein, and 64ounces of fluids. Keep trying, you should get there in a week or 2.

i burp when i drink too much in a swallow. i can feel it coming up. i also get this gurgling at the middle of my stomach too - i'm wondering if that is the Water traveling to the intestines.

For those of you who are having trouble getting your water in because of the burping, I found it was a little better for me if I marched in place while sipping. Give that a try.
