hiccups!!?

OK...long story short...

I hiccup almost everytime when I am done eating.. what gives? Does this mean I am full or ate too much? does this happen to anyone else?

I do the same but it is when I have eaten too fast. Sometime I do it after two or three bites from eating too fast. That may not be why you get them but it is why I get them.

..hmm i will keep that in mind.. and concentrate on how fast I eat!

Also when I get them they hurt. They are really bad hiccups not normal ones. Is that how yours are?

Yeah, I had that too.

It went away. I can't remember the last time I had hiccups now. Well, OK, I guess it was probably Julyish. LOL

That is one of the signs of being full my surgeon told me to watch for. Sometimes it is just one hiccup. I get the hiccup well after I am full and stop eating though, so I don't use it as a full signal.

When I first was banded I use to hiccup. That was a sign that I was full, or getting full. At times it was when I had eaten something like rice, and it was dry, or if I took the first few bites too fast.

I would call mine "Longshoreman Belches". They are so loud and unexpected that I am embrassed by them.:thumbup: So far, I've been at home when it happens. I'll be glad when they go away!!!

The hiccup is the first clue that I'm done eating and may have eaten too much. I'm a year out and I still do it.

My surgeon told me that could be my "sign" that I am getting full too. I get the hiccups quite often regardless of what I eat. My co-workers told me they wish they would get a sign that they were full because obviously they wouldn't be overweight if they got a sign. LOL!

I once scared a small child with the loudest hiccup I had ever encountered during the start of week 3 post surgery! I didn't know it was coming - it just came out.

Slowing down, taking MUCH smaller bites and chewing much more has meant these have just about gone away for me. I still get the occasional "indigestion" feeling when I begin eating sometimes but that apparently goes away too and is just another reminder to do the above right from the beginning of a meal.

I guess I'd rather be "hiccupy" then burpy, lol

I'm so happy to hear I'm not the only hiccuper!! Mine get violent. And when I get them...I know it's not good. For me, it can't be full. Because I've gotten them soon after starting to eat. I contribute them to eating too fast and possibly not chewing enough (bites too big). Mostly I wait for them to go away (but they hurt). But it has brought on sliming and even regurgitation (ick). So when I get those hiccups...I know it's not a good sign!
