If food comes up with the burp it is called a Productive Burp since you got some food up with it. Usually it is some of the food that is still in the pouch or esophagus. Vomiting is more like your stomach contracting violently and pushing the food out-think food poisoning vomiting.<br /><br />I never really understood the PB name. You don't have to be "stuck" to PB. So burp like a guy and tell everyone you have to get the air out. Go ahead and fart too, as long as it isn't a Productive fart:-)Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02400904095865742386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797141490398966565.post-46086951876010131612010-07-23T00:02:24.754+08:002010-07-23T00:02:24.754+08:00I burp all the time since surgery, it is normal. ...I burp all the time since surgery, it is normal. PB is when something comes up, if you are just burping it is nothing but that, burping! I have these huge long burps all the time, it's awesome. My hubby is extra turned on by those (kidding lol).Janellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08818413148882366954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797141490398966565.post-83556591325355107082010-07-22T19:39:51.860+08:002010-07-22T19:39:51.860+08:00I did huge burps for a month or so after my band a...I did huge burps for a month or so after my band as well both when I was on liquids and real food.

I though...Thanks MAria, that was wickedly helpful!<br /><br />I thought PB was the same as vomiting but i guess not. <br /><br />I haven't Pb'd or vomited since i had the surgery.... i hope i never do as i have a ffear of vomiting which nearly stopped me from getting the surgery all together.Seeing in colourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03658646784268801753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3797141490398966565.post-24024442473352143382010-07-22T16:43:08.228+08:002010-07-22T16:43:08.228+08:00No - you aren't stupid!!!!

A PB is a Productive Burp which is when you burp up a ball of food that was blocking your band opening... It doesn't hurt and has only happened to me once or twice.The ball of food is wrapped in mucus... Sounds nasty, right? I had to ask too, when I was first banded. Sliming is more like vomiting but again mucus is very much involved in that too. That happens to me more often, unfortunately. It's nasty, and seems to happen to me when I eat out so I'm humiliated in public...LOL. With mucusy goo all over my shirt, while high-tailing it to the bathroom. These things happen when you overeat, eat too fast or don't chew enough... The regular burping just helps the food go thru the band area, i think. I am still learning to eat slower and chew my food completely, a work in prgress you could say. ^Maria^-Blogger from "This one time at Band Camp..."
