Hiccups with fill?



Recommended Posts

Hiyas all ! :) Ok, so I had my 3rd fill this past weds. I finally feel restriction and might either be in the greenzone or damn close! YAY! but anyway.. hehe

So ever since I had my recent fill.. I've been hiccuping! has anyone gone through this? Doesn't seem like anything to worry about but it's odd and a little annoying. Kinda weird right?

Anyway, have an awesome day all **Hugs**!

My dr said that we need to slow down eating cause we're getting to much air

Yes!! When I first got into the Green Zone, I swear I would hiccup constantly. I finally realized I had to slow down a lot more when I ate. Before I was banded, I was definitely a rushed eater. I'd just plow through my meals without any thought. I guess old habits die hard because even though I thought I'd slowed down, apparently I hadn't slowed enough.

I still get weird hiccups when I'm done eating sometimes. It's one of my "soft stops". It's not even like normal hiccups, in fact my kids and I jokingly call them "hiccurps" because it's like a combination between a hiccup and a burp. I'll have a half dozen hiccurps and I know when that happens I'm done eating. Odd huh? :)

Hiccups come for reasons that even doctors don't understand. Mine usually are a signal of eating too fast or bit too much. Hope this will be your green zone! Best wishes.

My hiccups tend to come when I am finished eating. As someone said my soft warning. It usually means don't take another bite. Burping, however, I get at odd times, too!

Oh hiccups are definitely a warning sign to slow down..put down the fork and wait. It also means you've ate too fast..too much..too soon. In my experience

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
