Burping
So I have this crazy diet that they gave me at the hospital...this week I am only suppose to be eating things like sherbert, yogurt, pudding, and creamy soups. Well let me tell you I have had enough. I am also suppose to be drinking this protein supplement which is hideous, no joke! I can't get it down it's so awful. Well I am feeling 100% other than being exhausted because I've had NO protein in 2 weeks, so I decided to eat something soft like eggs and chew chew chew and see what happened. Guess what happened, nothing! I feel so normal I can't even explain it lol. The sherbert, yogurt, pudding and soups had no nutritional value and I was so hungry and felt awful, I feel so much better eating a little more normally. I know I am still healing inside although I can't feel it, so I am taking it very very slow. I did notice that I was getting very burpy, which has been a weird experience. Like every time I eat something I have to burp and I can't always just burp, it just comes up when it wants to. Not really my ideal situation. So someone on lapbandtalk had suggested that I eat even smaller amounts because I may be getting restriction from the swelling even though there is no saline in my band. I liked that suggestion so I'm going to give it a try. Another thing I noticed is that I get no signs of a full feeling while I am eating but about 10 minutes after I am done (sometimes) I get super full! Then I burp a whole bunch so I guess it's not the food as much as it is the air trapped inside my stomach. So like I said I am going to tone it back just a little bit and eat even less and see if that makes a difference. Thanks for reading!
