Geez. I eat a chewy Vitamin, I burp for hours. I drink a Protein Drink, I burp for hours. Heaven forbid I eat something substantial, I burp for days! (Exaggeration? Maybe ;) but seriously massive amounts of gas!)

It doesn't hurt, I am not necessarily full, but my husband and I are kind of tired of my gianormous continuous stream of burps after I consume something. Gas x helps a little but they are kind of expensive to use constantly and you can only have 8 of them a day anyway.

I try eating slower, smaller, whatever it doesn't help. I am 2.5 weeks post surgery. Does this happen to anyone else?

I will look for the pills. Like I said there is no pain, but I'd like to be able to go out in public occasionally without burping my way through it :)

      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.
