I was sleeved yesterday and I'm on Clear Liquids today. I've been getting mean hiccups since last night. I hold my breath and they go away but they always come back. Anyone else have this problem? What'd you do?

I was sleeved on July 11th and I get the hiccups often, especially after I eat and am full.

Yup, hiccups or burps are common to signal satiety. Soon you will start to feel the satiety point before the hiccups. It took me about 2 months before reaching this step towards sleeve enlightenment.

I still get hiccups quite frequently especially when I am full. Even before surgery I think I got them more often than most people but it has gotten worse since the procedure.

Let me add I've been getting the since last night when I'd been fasting 24 hours. I haven't had anything today but 1 cup of broth, a half cup of Jello and Water.< /p>

it is probably related to the gas from surgery.

I would have to agree with hawkihoops. It is probably the gas they used to blow up your belly to see that is irritating your diaphragm which causes hiccups.

I'm 7 months out and get hiccups almost daily post meal and I've had them since first day post op... It's my "full" signal. It's very short (2 min or so) but they still happen.

Nothing to worry about- hiccups happen! ;)

      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.
