Butterflywarrior 241 Posted October 27, 2016 Had surgery Monday tarted Protein drinks today..doing powder with skim milk.. Had some Tomato Soup made with skim milk, organic etc Noticed when I eat, I burp a lot and hear gurgling in my throat, sometimes a tiny bit of pain but dissipates fast...I can swallow a fairly large sip or sip rapidly.. maybe in going to fast???? I forget constantly that I need to go super slow... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joy@boman 151 Posted October 27, 2016 Same here. Lots of gurgling and gas bubbles at first. Cold stuff seems to make it worse. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KristenLe 5,979 Posted October 27, 2016 I think it's normal. I can now sip fairly normal sips. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Purple hearts 4 Posted October 28, 2016 The faster you sip the more discomfort, and burping. Burping is good because it releases those painful gas pockets from the surgery Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted October 28, 2016 Try slowing down and taking smaller sips. It will get better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimberb 323 Posted October 28, 2016 My surgeon told us that after surgery we should try room temp liquids for awhile. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-T337A using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
