I had LB on 2-18-08 and I have not thrown up yet. Is that PB'ing? When and why do people PB? I hope you don't think that these are stupid questions.

PB (productive burping) isn't really throwing up, it's kind of where you burp or cough, or not really and it just comes back up your throat and into your mouth, it didn't go down to your stomach or anything like that so it isn't puking.

People PB, usually from eating too fast, taking too big of a bite of food, or not chewing their food enough.

Thanks so much for the info!!! I guess I have never PB"D. I have taken too big of a bite of something and I start sliming right away. Feels like a rock is in my chest but that is it. It does go away in a few minutes and then I feel fine.

lol sliming is when saliva and mucus try to get whatever you have stuck unstuck and that's part of a PB lol

OK, so the stuck food does not have to come up. Well, I have certainly been really hurting from too big of a bite. It has just never tried to move back up only down. So then I have PB'd.

      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.
