Congradulation on your WLS. You are on your way to a healthy better you, I am so happy for you. As for the burping, maybe it is because your stomach is empty, But do not take my word for it, I have not gotten my lap band surgery yet. Best Wishes! Demetria

I had my lap band 10/23. Burping is normal and needed. My doctor rec. GasX as they told me numerous times that I WOULD have extra gas. I too am worried about getting enough hydration with only 4oz per hour. I go to see my doctor Monday...so I may get some more answers then. I have found that I am not walking a few times a week as they prescribed for me yet. I have once...but I was kinda hurting in my guts! What about you??
