After surgery I couldnt burp at all for 2 weeks, when I finally did I felt so much better, since then, I burp so much! I burp, gurgle?, and do this crazy hybrid hicup burp. I always feel better after.

I do burp, but the farting is what has worsened for me. :scared2:

My burps have worsened big time! It's as if they come from my toes and gather strength on their way up! They're soooooooooooooo embarassing when I'm with a customer and out of nowhere I have this hicc-a-burp that the whole room can hear! I'm so happy to hear that I'm not alone with that!

I never thought I would be jealous of people's burps! I would love to be able to burp - I'm 3 days post op and still feel gassy. Maybe I just haven't got the hang of new burping yet or maybe it will be better once I start solids.

I always thought that burping after a meal was a compliment to the chef - at least that's what my grandma told me!

Things will change, just wait. Congratulations on getting the band. It will be great when the weight starts coming off. The first couple of weeks are the hardest. Hang in there and please do what the doctor tells you :smile2:

A lot less! I had a hiatal hernia repair and I think that's why I burp less.

My husband calls me Kermit (the frog) because I now burp daily and often - but they are short burps in my throat - over and over again at times. No pain. (I know the difference from PBing - very painful). I lost a lot of weight the first 4 months but nothing in the past 7 months! Am wondering about the fill - need to see my doc. I'm afraid to get another fill because of this almost constant burping. I even burp in the morning when I have nothing in my stomach yet.

lol yeah I have some crazy burps now after being banded. It's pretty funny when I can actually let em rip but can be really annoying to keep down if I'm out in public or something. :)

I was unable to burp 1st couple of weeks after surgery then once I passed the liquied stage the burping & hiccups started. I usually get the hiccups 1st thing in the morning or whenever my stomache is quite empty & after the 1st bite or food or even 1st sip of liquids I get the hiccups. I too cant help but giggle when I let the burps come out full force (when Im alone) I was never one who burped & I find it amusing. Now when Im with compnay or in public Now thats a different matter. I for the most part can control it but then there are the surprise attacks that I have no control of and It is embarrasing. I was hoping this was a temporary thing but keep reading people who have been banded for sometime now still burp.....Oh well. :(

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
