I'm gaining weight

Okay, I'm 2 1/2 years post op, I've gained 25-30 pounds, I only have a BM about once a week and I burp constantly. I can take Milk of Magnesia everynight and go every 2-3 days. I'm drinking over 64 oz a day. I can only eat a little at a time (one sandwich), but an hour later my stomach is growling again. During all this, I am burping. I really haven't changed my eating habits, I haven't eaten or drinken anything with sugar since the day before my surgery. I'm really depressed about this and can't figure it out. I cut out almost all my carbs for a month and gained 1/2 a pound. Has this happened to anyone else and what can I do about it? Thanks, Gayle
