I'm now 25 months out from surgery, but ever since I had it I've had something similar to burps that come out of my stomach, but they're not burps - it's more like air escaping from my stomach through my mouth. It happens 3-4 times a day, and I can generally control it. My boyfriend describes it as "it sounds like you're giving birth to aliens through your mouth." :lol:<_<

It doesn't bother me at all (it's kind of funny), just wondering if I'm alone in this.

All the burps I have (and there are LOTS of them!) are real-live, honest-to-goodness burps....nothing fake or "pseudo" about any of them. LOL

Might be what I call "throat gurgles". Sounds like a burp, but is more just like a noise that my esophagus is doing. It can be pretty loud sometimes. I'm in a lot of meetings most days and I often have to explain - "It's just a noise I make." DH claims it wakes him up some nights.

I had it with my lapband too. I called it "gurgling" back then, but now I make a new noise that better fits "gurgling" so the moniker shifted.

I'm not nearly as far out as you, but I have this too. It sounds like it comes from right underneath my sternum. I haven't gotten back to work yet, but I'm hoping that it will eventually settle down a little.

      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.
