Have someone rub it up towards your neck in hope to burp it out. Maybe neck/shoulder exercise?

Who eats McDonalds post op?
survivingsleever replied to mi75's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'll be honest, I'm 3 months out and down 40 lbs. I'll indulge, no where near as much as I use too (weekly basis). Maybe once a month. For example a mc griddle meal. I'll take off the top part of the griddle and eat a half in one sitting. 3 hrs later the other have, 3 hrs later the hash brown. Instead of pop or juice I get a large cup of water. I'm a realist, I'm human and like to treat myself every now in then. I don't have the weekly cravings which is amazing! -

This is a first for me! Your only 6 months, you have several months before you completely stop. Let us know your outcome after your meeting good luck! -

I use to be super regular same time every morning like clock work pre surgery. Now post, I don't eat no where as much as I use to. 2 1/2 months out every 3-4 days is regular. -

How to deal with others eating around you?
survivingsleever replied to itsjustdaisy's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I go out maybe 3x wk. I'm about 6 wks out. I can get full off a cup of Soup or eat half an appetizer. My immediate fam knows. But if I'm not with them I tell whoever I ate before I came or have another eating engagement and want to eat light. Normally were so busy talking for them to notice I barely ate anything. -

How were you feeling 3 weeks out?
survivingsleever replied to WhoKnows's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I feel great! I'll b 4 wks tomorrow. I only took 1 wk off work. To be honest I haven't been doing well with my Water, Vitamin schedule, and Protein shakes. But I still have energy, and know my body enough to know when to sit down. Right now I'm down 24 lbs. =) -

Sleep Apnea Evaluation - Unexpected Requirement
survivingsleever replied to SnohoGal98296's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
In my case of jumping through hurdles I found out I had sleep apnea. I was sleeved 3/14, as of today I'm 20 lbs lighter. My sleep study dr told me at a recent follow up dr if I loose 20 more lbs within 5 months I need to reschedule another sleep study to get my pressure re evaluated. Generally once you loose 25% of your body fat within 6 month time frame you have to meet with your dr and they will determine if you need to stay on. Good luck!
