IDK if it's normal but it keeps happening to me as well, like it's flipping or something. Well at least we're not alone...

I have this too. I feel it contract and then fee like I need to burp then there is a split second of pain. Idk what it is but it's been happening on and off. I think it's gas but maybe it's reflux? Anyone?

Pain near your diaphragm? Sleeved same day as you and I get this also. I think it's probably residual gas loitering

Yup that's exactly where it is. I took some gas x chews last night for the first time and have finally been able to fart and its relief when I do! So I think that is the pain also. Still I'm gonna get an acid reducer just to have.

      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.
