TMI - Embarassing questions



Recommended Posts

Hello Shamrocks!

I keep meaning to start this thread, then forget about it when I am online. I figured it would be nice to have a thread that is for all our embarssing questions and/or comments. Funny part is that right now I don't have one, but I wanted to start the thread before I forgot. :thumbup:

Burping a lot here too. It really does bother me. I am hoping that as time goes by and my body gets used to this new way of eating it will get better.

If I am with a new partner for the first time and he is noticing the port bump, I am doing something very very wrong................

I have been banded for 16 months and the burping doesn't seem to go away. I am not sure why, but I know a lot of banded people who have had their bands a lot longer than me, and they say it never goes away.

The band must trap air somewhere in there.

My daughter keeps telling me I need to learn to burp with my mouth shut.

Even with my mouth shut, sometimes they are very loud. It IS embarrassing. It's not very lady like, that's for sure.

I have to say that I LOVE my new burping skills! Sometimes I can lean forward and emit a low, gurgling growl that lasts five or six seconds. It's hugely satisfying!

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
