Burping and feel no restriction



Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I had the RNY on 8/23 and have yet to feel full or determine what restriction feels like. I just had moist eggs for the first time and after a few bites I started to burp.... Any suggestions?

I felt the same way about not feeling no restriction but then I realized I am only drinking liquids so maybe that's why. LOL I'm so ready for tomorrow because I go for my 2 week follow-up and will be on soft foods!!! Hope I will notice a difference when I eat something with more consistency.

I had my surgery on 7/19 and still have no fullness/restriction, I sometimes get a burp or a hiccupy burp and take that as a signal to stop. I measure my food when home and when I'm out I split a meal with my daughter and usually only eat half of that, not because I feel full but because I tell myself that's enough. But with that said I have no hunger!

At only a couple of weeks out, your stomach is still swollen and healing. You can't feel fullness because your nerves were cut. Measure, and don't push it, and don't worry. Once those nerves start working again, and the swelling goes down, you'll feel plenty of restriction.

At almost 4 months out, I still have plenty of restriction, get food stuck, and can't even eat the amount my doctor said I could try for. You'll get there, but don't push things now because you might hurt your newly formed stomach!

I'm 5 days out of surgery and am feeling the same thing with only taking liquids. I didn't realize how fast I was drinking my Vitamin drink and downed 16 oz in 30 mins just now! I used to get a pain in the upper left quadrant when I was drinking too much but that has stopped. I'm glad to hear that this happens to other people and that I haven't necessarily stretched my stomach out!

I hope this stops soon and I feel as bad as they say you do if you if you eat too much!

Im 3months out and I still belch-burp with everything I put in my mouth. I have gas all the time. I know that after I take 2-3 bites, to stop because if I try to take another bite, I will be in trouble.

      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.
