Burping and feel no restriction



Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I had the RNY on 8/23 and have yet to feel full or determine what restriction feels like. I just had moist eggs for the first time and after a few bites I started to burp.... Any suggestions?

I felt the same way about not feeling no restriction but then I realized I am only drinking liquids so maybe that's why. LOL I'm so ready for tomorrow because I go for my 2 week follow-up and will be on soft foods!!! Hope I will notice a difference when I eat something with more consistency.

I had my surgery on 7/19 and still have no fullness/restriction, I sometimes get a burp or a hiccupy burp and take that as a signal to stop. I measure my food when home and when I'm out I split a meal with my daughter and usually only eat half of that, not because I feel full but because I tell myself that's enough. But with that said I have no hunger!

At only a couple of weeks out, your stomach is still swollen and healing. You can't feel fullness because your nerves were cut. Measure, and don't push it, and don't worry. Once those nerves start working again, and the swelling goes down, you'll feel plenty of restriction.

At almost 4 months out, I still have plenty of restriction, get food stuck, and can't even eat the amount my doctor said I could try for. You'll get there, but don't push things now because you might hurt your newly formed stomach!

I'm 5 days out of surgery and am feeling the same thing with only taking liquids. I didn't realize how fast I was drinking my Vitamin drink and downed 16 oz in 30 mins just now! I used to get a pain in the upper left quadrant when I was drinking too much but that has stopped. I'm glad to hear that this happens to other people and that I haven't necessarily stretched my stomach out!

I hope this stops soon and I feel as bad as they say you do if you if you eat too much!

Im 3months out and I still belch-burp with everything I put in my mouth. I have gas all the time. I know that after I take 2-3 bites, to stop because if I try to take another bite, I will be in trouble.

      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.

        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!
