Burping. Good, Bad, Expected? Foevah?



Recommended Posts

I have a question about PB ing.. Its kinda gross but I would like to know what to expect

I understand that when you overeat or something gets stuck you.. Burp vomit. Is there advanced warning can you run to the bathroom to hide it. Or are you like a cat with a hairball?

Do you feel nausea, pain, both?

My friend was banded two weeks before me and she pbs about 3-4 times per week. She says she really doesn't have much of a warning. I've witnessed her running out the back door of her classroom. I eat a little slower than she does, and luckily it still hasn't happened to me. I hope it never does.

I am 3 weeks out and have not vomited or PB, I only burp like a man. My burp usually happens about 15 to 30 minutes after I eat or have a protien shake. I am on mushy food now and I still have not had problems with vomiting. I got my 1st fill yesterday and on liquids today, but so far so good!!!!

I know almost immediatly after I swallow that I made a mistake. Most of the time I will have some pain and start burping like crazy. I can feel it trying to come up or go down. I have pb'd about 4or5 times. The longest pb session I had took about 45 min. before it was all said and done. I have also slimed. But I haven't personally had pain with slimming. I hope this has answered your questions.. Also take in mind everybody is different. Someone else might not pb as long as I had that 1 time. Some maybe longer. It depends on the individual.

As far as being newley banded and burping..get used to it. It eventually gets better. I belch really bad after my fills now for 1 or 2 days. good luck

Do you have a sense of restriction now? Did you before the fill? I get full quickly and have no complaints about feeling hungry and wondering how much less hungry I'll feel after the fill. If you don't feel restriction, how long do you have to wait for your next fill?

My burping has slowed a bit. I still burp after eating, but usually just one long man burp. I think the key was eating more slowly and healing.

I also had my first PB. It wasn't so bad and I knew immediatley that something was wrong. I felt the bit of food get stuck in my chest and there was some pain, but not excrutiating. Then liquid came up and once that was done, the food went down. It was my fault for taking too big a bite, lesson learned. :thumbdown:

      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.
