PB Question - Just had one! Help!



Recommended Posts

I noticed on the talk board people talking about PBing, what is this?

I'm new to the site so I haven't had a chance to really look around.

But, one of the reasons I'm here is to find out if anyone else ever has issues like below:

Today for lunch I had a piece of chicken and some sliced carrorts with almonds. I will say I ate really quickly, but now I have the worst pain in my lower back and I feel really gassy right above the band. What in the world is causing this? I've noticed this is happening more and more lately; at least once a week. Is something wrong or am I'm just plain eating to fast and gulping in a bunch of air? It really hurts.

PB stands for productive burp. It is similare to vomitting. Sometime you will vomit chunks of food or what is in your pouch. As far as you symtoms go, it sounds like its your body telling you the signs of restriction. You definitely need to slow down and see if you are full before you eat more.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
