It Happens All The Time.. But Why?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I'm just curious about something. Everytime I take a small baby bite of food, I feel a heartburn pain. Then sometimes I try to make myself burp. If not, I accidentally burp out loud..

Apparently I'm getting gases in my chest. Does this happen to anyone else? Is this normal? What does it mean?

Yes I've had 3fills.

Sometimes its hard to burp. Like if the air is stuck & won't come out.

I heard from somewhere on this board to take enzyme papaya pills. Maybe before you eat and after. I take them after when I feel like I am going to have a stuck episode. Not sure if it works but it is better then nothing...

      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.
