Day 3 Post Surgery

[scorrea 95]

Hi, I am looking to find out about the burping that I am doing. Is it because I have taken in too much food? I mean food, liquids? I am still on liquid diet, with a scrambled egg here and there to help with the dizziness and light headedness. I am still drinking Protein Shakes and boullion. I feel full, maybe a bit too full?

Thank you !

my post op diet which I'm still on, I'm on day 8 was the first 24 hours all liquids and then I was to move to mushies. My doc said when I felt the feeling of like I had to burp to stop eating that that was when my top portion of stomach was full. Hope this helps.

Burping for me meant I was getting close to full.

If you are sick of liquids, here's something that is nearly liquid. Egg drop Soup. It's pretty much just broth and an egg. It goes down like liquids but since there's a little texture, it satisfies.

If you go to the grocery store, in the asian Isle is a mix that makes 3 cups. It's mostly chicken broth powder and some other spices. But it's not bad.

I burped in excess the first month. I believe it was related to gas because I could have not consumed anything for a couple hours and be burping away. It'll pass.

Are u sure u can eat scrambled eggs on a liquid diet ? the intake of gas or creation of it is one of the pleasures of being banded, and if its not burping the gas will come out any way it can A year and half down the line and i am still 'windy' ..

Thank you everyone for your input! I feel better now. And yes, I was told by my doctor that an occasional scrambled egg to keep headaches and dizziness at bay was ok, I can go to mushy foods this weekend if all is well.

Not all doctors follow your doctor's guidelines. I was on liquids 4 days, pureed 4 days and then soft foods from day 9 on. All on doctors orders.
