I'm a little over 4 months out. Things are mostly ok, nutrition is fine, numbers are good, but I burp all the time. Worse when I eat too fast, but happens almost anytime I eat anything. I don't drink any soda or use straws or anything obvious like that. It's not like huge burps, just more of a low-level thing. Most of the time I can keep it silent (although around my family I tend to let it rip).

Has anyone had this? Does it ever go away? Does it mean something is wrong with my sleeve?

Thanks!

Small burps are my "indicator" that I am getting close to my limit. I need to stop eating pretty soon.

I am 2 months post op and do a lot of burping as well. I have been told it is totally normal. I do find if I slow my eating down it is less but I have no pain so I can't complain if that is my only issue.

I think it would be a good idea to call your surgeon.

Eighteen months (and one day!) out here.

I burp all the time. In fact, I eat 3-4 bites and I hope/pray for a burp to surface so I can eat 3-4 more bites. I do this little neck stretch thing that my kids make fun of to force one out, I "burp" myself and if I am desperate, I run up the steps and back down real quick.

I don't see it going away any time soon. You will get used to it. :D

      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.
