PB stands for productive burp. It's just a polite way of saying throwing up. With a pb though, it's sometimes like a burp but food comes up with it. Sometimes it's more like all out puking. We try to avoid that because it irritates the stomach and most people have to go on liquids for awhile to let the stomach rest. I am on liquids today as a matter of fact, because I can tell my esophagus is sore. If something does not pass through the band, it's stuck in the esophagus and it hurts.

As far as eating, call your doctor and find out if you can have Soup. I was able to have soup but I had to put it in the blender and make sure there were no chunks. Soup seemed to fill me up better than Protein Shakes.< /p>

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

      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! 😞
