Hiccups!!



Recommended Posts

Is anyone getting hiccups more than usual? It seems that every time I drink Water I am getting them! Seriously, I sound like a frog. I am getting them 2X a day at least. What is up with that? I've noticed it since the fill last week.

Anyone to commiserate?

LOL They crack me up! Always happening at the worst time. I have noticed I get them more than usual. Can't say it has to do with anything though.

Okay, NOW your band is gonna make you work. Smaller sips, smaller bites, slower eating and drinking. No more impulsive food and drink shoveling. Be careful because now your fill is working! Hang on. Watch out for potential PBs. Fills Rcok!

Angie you will be fine...I don't feel any different...I can even still drink pretty fast (did by accident earlier). I am hungry right now...I really want to chew. Doing liquids now is harder than after surgery...then I had swelling galore...I don't feel swollen at all.

Hiccups are one of my first indicators that my pouch is full. Once I hiccup I stop eating and drinking.

you are not kidding. I get them and they are like a cross between a gasp and a hiccup. They keep going and going and going. maybe it'll be good for for our abs.

I have, since my last fill of 2.5cc, gotten the hicupps after every meal and often simply drinking fluids. Usually, if I even eat one more bite I will PB....so to me that is a way of saying "okay, this is enough." However, it can be very embarassing when you are out in a restaurant. I personally think mine is because I am a little too tight, but then again who knows?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
