I am 8 days out and all of a sudden I keep getting hiccups. Only about 3 or 4 and then they stop but not fun. Anyone else had this or know what would be causing it?

Is it right after you eat? I've seen people talk about hiccups being an indication of eating too much for the new pouch...

I haven't had bonafied hiccups, but I've had like 1 hiccup and right after surgery it was painful... now I don't seem to have them at 2.5 weeks out.

I think it is actually when I drink. I am going to try and take smaller sips and see if that helps. So how are you doing?

I'm doing OK! I'm a little tired of Protein drinks, so I think I'm going to order some of the unflavored protein and find other things to drink other than the milky chocolate/vanilla drinks... I'd like a savory choice I think! Maybe I'll get the Soups and just add more protein to it.

I'm pleased with my weight loss, but I wish I could tell a difference... none of my clothes really fit any different, but my rings are big on me (and I've worn these rings when I was much skinnier!). I think my face is less swollen looking, but I'm positive that's because I'm off the carbs.

The pains in the abdomen are so much better, almost back to normal there!

How are you feeling other than the hiccups? How's your recovery going?

Hiccups and sneezing are signs of being full, just a bit away from dumping syndrome. But at 8 days post-op and on a liquid diet, I doubt this is the cause.
