Belching like a frat boy post op?



Recommended Posts

Okay, I knew there would be gas, but didn't realize with every sip or tiny bite of anything I take comes about 20 belches.Seriously I would win the frat boy competition. I've probably walked at least a mile and a half today, took in 66oz liquids, 60oz Protein, a few bites of Soup, applesauce and was sleeved 3 days ago on the 30th.

Probably TMI but I've only farted 5 times post of and finally had a bowel movement today. Still...the belching continues.

So, my question is should I sign up for a frat now because I'm going to be in burping hell for next to forever or did any of y'all have it and have it go away (and if so, when)? :blink:

I hope it ends up going away for us soon! I burped throughout my entire pregnancy and then as soon as I delivered my kiddo, it was gone. Now I have a sleeve and nothing to deliver so hoping for some elusive end date.

I managed a mile and a half by breaking it up into 3-4 chunks throughout the day. I think if I did it all at once i would be WAYYY too winded. It also helped that I've been chasing a dog and a toddler and they are wily and fast!

Don't worry, the belching goes away. It took about 4 days to get it out of my system. Just be happy it's not coming out that end. For about a week I was waking up around 1:30am every morning with the gas coming out the other end. The amount was quite impressive. I'm just glad it happened at home and not at work. :D

You just motivated me to get moving more. My kids are older so nobody to chase.

Good luck with everything!

Lol @ passing gas. Yes, I am thankful the gas is moving up north instead of heading down south. So glad to hear that it goes away eventually!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
