I was just banded on Friday, how long do you think I will feel uncomfortable to burp? Also, how can I tell if I have any restriction while on the liquid diet? I know most people do not, but some do I was just wondering how I tell if I'm one of the lucky ones.

Bump...anyone?

good question, I was banded on 8/2/07 and I find that I am having a painful time burping...

Me too...I was banded on August 7 and cannot burp..there is just pressure in my chest and then it goes away....I can't wait for this to be over.

Today was the first day that I had productive burps and only after walking for about 30 min. I was banded on 8/8. I also find that it is easier to burp after having a fudgesicle or soemthign in my stomach besides water.

What do you mean "productive burps"? Do you mean burping as in BELCHING? Or do you mean it as in PB'ing? Burping and PB'ing are two completely different things in bandland..... and if you were just banded, you shouldn't be having PB's...

By productive I mean giving me some sort of release of the pressure. I would have these little small burps that you couldn't even hear. Yesterday was the first day that I had big burps that relieved pressure.
