Ugh I hope this won't be a problem. I don't mind burping, but hate the discomfort that goes with it. I do it a lot....mostly after sipping. It's also a lot more of a hiccup/burp. Hate that! Even no the burping continues, will it always be so uncomfortable?

I figured out that it was drinking Water that was causing the frequent and painful burping. But I am able to drink iced tea, light cranberry juice, lemonade etc with no problems. I will keep trying to see if water gets easier but just wanted to say that you may want to try other fluids besides water if painful or frequent burping is impeding Fluid intake.

I had my surgery on 3/8 and started feeling the gas and pressure in my upper ab once I was allowed to start liquids. I realized it was because I was swallowing too much air. I had to make adjustments to the way I swallow. It's still hard and there are times that I forget but the gas reminds me immediately. Gas X sheets do help and I hope this stage ends soon.

      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.
