Does burping mean my pouch is full?



Recommended Posts

Whenever I eat something, i quickly burp. Does that mean anything? Or just that the pouch was empty and air was trapped and needed to escape? I'm still navigating the "i'm full" feeling...trying to figure out what it feels like.

it's possible that you are eating a bit too quickly. I actually get a burpy kind of feeling when I'm full, and that's my signal to either slow waayyyy down or stop eating for now.

For me (bypass), if it's a burp stuck it is usually because I am eating too fast and hit hurts like hell. It usually causes me to be done eating period. Even after the burp finally moves. It literally just happened to me tonight.

I know I will have to have a snack later. Bariatricpal hot chocolate it is!

If I eat nice and slow and then hicup or sigh, that usually is a sign of being full. Over time you will simply know by feel again.

In the beginning, that sigh or hiccup meant stop right now, you are full.

I usually stop eating once I burp. Now, if I could just figure out why my nose runs every time I eat.

You have to pay attention though. My tell is hiccups. Then I know I'm done! The roof of my mouth gets wrinkled when I'm stuck too.

I have noticed that my nose is running a lot lately, too. I'm not sick. What is up with that? Is there any connection to the surgery, the way I'm eating/drinking? I don't know. It's weird.

Me too and it's the dead of winter so it can't be allergies. I have a 3 mos check up tomorrow so I was going to ask the Dr.

I am 9 months out and my nose runs and I sneeze. That is my body's way of telling me that I am full.

I'm almost 3 weeks out and I cannot tolerate the Protein Shakes, so I accelerated my diet. Anytime I eat too fast I get a terrible pain on the right side of my nose which sometimes radiates to my right temple. The surgeon had never heard of that. Anyone else get this?

I feel the same as far of accelerating my process , Protein Shakes I can't. I wonder if I'm hurting myself by going to the next stage. No pains.

I, too, get the hiccups when I eat too fast and boy they are painful. My husband just looks at me and grins. He knows I did it wrong.

Runny nose and sneezing is another sign of being full, I just read an article about it. It happens to me too

I have two kinds of burping. There's a burping/gurgling when I'm eating, which I think has to do with the food moving into my stomach/intestine. And then there's the longer-term real burping that I think is related to eating too fast/too much. I just had my six-month checkup yesterday, and the doc agreed with me on the eating too fast/too much burping. So I'm now working on slowing things down and being more mindful.

      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!!
