I can't burp but feel like I NEED to!!
MomTo2Boys posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was banded 3 days ago and all is well besides a couple side effects...I feel like I need to burp and I cant! I feel like I have a baseball sized burp in the top of my stomach! Has anyone else had this? I am also now fighting diarrhea. I am still on clear liquids (sugar free). Any suggestions? -
I am 4 days post-op and already questioning my sanity! I am sticking to the rules and I am starving! For the 1st week I am on clear sugar-free liquids. I have cheated and sucked on a few Ritz crackers because I am so hungry! On top of being hungry every time I drink something more than a sip I have to run to the bathroom (diarrhea). Does anyone have any suggestions?? How can I make it 3 weeks before actual food?? :biggrin:

I just had my first fill on 5 days ago. They started my lap band at 4cc at time of surgery. They added 2cc's more bringing me to a total of 6cc's. Everything I try and eat feels like it is stuck and I have mini throw-ups. It hurts so bad! At 4cc I had hardly any restrictions! I have the lap band ap. Please advice me! Do I need to have some removed???

I tried the gas-x strips! Worked great! Also another little helper I found was sucking on sugar-free peppermint lifesavers! I have had the worst cotton mouth and the lifesavers worked wonderful! Almost like a like a little treat!:blushing: -

Everyone has cute graphs at the bottom of their posts; where do I find them and how do I add them to my post? -

I am so going to find some of those strips! Anything for a little more comfort! Juice would be great, but I was told to be sugar free and clear liquids for 7 days until my "first breakfast" with my dietitian! Uggg!! :thumbup: -

I was banded yesterday and I have the same worries! With everything sugar free and clear I think the most calories I have had is about 15 between broth and jello! What did you do about the bloating? It seems like that is causing me the most pain.
