Unladylilke Gas (serious question)

[Wheetsin 714]

The only time I can't burp is when something is stuck. That's one of my "I'm going to PB" signs - I try to burp, but can definitely feel something keeping it from coming up. Even if I've just eaten I can still burp, I just feel it shifting its way through my mush to get out. Delightful little bastard.

I'm the opposite on the toots. I noticed on Atkins that I hardly ever tooted. When I did it was as though I had leased it directly from the sulfuric flames of hell, but it wasn't a daily or even weekly thing.

Same thing now, minus the whole sulfuric flames thing. I was gassy lastnight & today, but since banding I hardly ever toot & now it doesn't have an odor, either - and I'm not just trying to make myself feel better when I say that, either!

How tight are you? I have found that when I am more restricted I am unable to burp...and it has to come out the other end. This is one of the complications they just gloss over during the presentation. Sorry you're having trouble.

when i first met soon to be DH i had good restriction. about 7 months later i went 1 year without ANY restriction. during that year my burps became AMPLIFIED. i tried to cover it up and excuse myself but there really wasnt much i could do. i would tell calvin that 'its my band' he of course thought it was me being comfortable with him and letting it fly....TO THE TUNE OF A 10 YR OLD! he even started burping louder, his way of showing me that he *knows* i can control it then he would laugh and say 'its my band' *shakes head* he has RNY!!!... lol...so now that i am restricted again i cant burp to save my life and i TOTALLY am giving him hell about teasing me for my uncontrollable burps...

now that i am tighter, i AM rumbly in the tummy (like i should have to run to the bathroom) all day but so far i havent *noticed* anything more than usual actually coming out gas wise.

i HAVE had problems with Constipation like you wouldnt believe but i am 100% positive thats from Atkins and sugar free candy. 2 things i will NEVER touch again!
