Like a Goodyear Blimp!



Recommended Posts

I've got so much air on my tummy from my second fill I feel like a blimp. I've been belching like a logger. It seems the more I burp, the more I need to burp. It's constant, not just when I eat. It's all day long. I had some burping after my first fill, and the day before the second fill was probably the worst. Since then, it's been constant and uncomfortable. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I took some Gas-X and it didn't seem to do anything.

For b-fast I had some scrambled eggs and a few cherries. I've been drinking crystal lite. I had a handful of my son's Corn Nuts. That's about it. I'm still not to restriction level, and can eat everything without problem.

I didn't have this problem after surgery, just since my fills. Sometimes it's hard to get the burp up, and then when I do, there's still more in there creating pressure.

Anyone? Please!

I have read on here that Crystal Light can cause gas. I don't drink it so I can't say for sure, but maybe you could try drinking something else (maybe Propel or plain Water? ) for a couple of days to see if that makes a difference. Hope this helps.

Hi,

Sorry for your pain! It could be the sweetener in the crystal light. It can sometimes give me gas - but err....not usually the burpy kind! :)

Hope it goes away soon!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
