    Yes, I do the same burping , and I get sick a lot. I think it's just a continuous learning process to knowing how to eat. I have friends who years after their lapband still throw up. I do better with very small portions and eating more often, but that's hard to do sometimes. When I'm out and about I carry this little ice chest that looks like a purse with Slimfast drinks and snacks. I eat a lot of homemade soups. Water makes me sick since my surgery. So I have to get my liquids in other ways. Before, I used to drink tons of water. I have not exercised. I have a lot going on now in my life and haven't found a way to fit it in. At least I'm moving all the time instead of laying around watching TV all the time. Looking back TV and food were my life. I never have time for TV and I have a new grandson born Aug. 6 and I'm involved in a very intense bible study and I meet friends a lot for lunch - usually have a cup of soup. Life is good! Take care.

    Hello itchycat55. This is Dylee (TexasLady). How cool to meet a Canadian, especially from Victory. My husband is a consultant and we lived in Vancouver for over a year (we left in Oct. 2010) and we loved Vancouver. We have always enjoyed our many travels through Canada, and think it is the most beautiful country! I hope you are doing ok with your sleeve. I am still learning how to eat. Lots of things just don't want to stay down. I can only eat a very small portion (maybe half of a child's meal), and if I take 2 bites more than I should, I get sick. But it's all been so worth it. My life has changed so much. I'm loving life every day! And food does not play an important part of my life anymore. Hope to hear from you soon. Regards, Dylee

    HI there itchycat,
    I see that you live near Victoria. Did you have your surgery there? I live in the Comox Valley and am considering the sleeve.
