7-1/2 mo out/lots of belching and stomach feels swollen

For the past couple weeks I have been having a lot of belching and my stomach feels like it is swollen, say the size of a baseball.  Through my weight loss journey and losing a hundred pounds I have not noticed my stomach/pouch feeling swollen.

I am not drinking through straws which might pose some air and I am following my eating plan 60-90 grams protein, protein first, no drinking before or after meals 30 minutes.

Could this just be chalked up to a grouchy pouch? 

Thank you for sharing your experiences.

Still got your gall bladder?

You know Kelly that was something I was thinking..I have an appt. with my pcp next month so I will discuss this with him and journal my symptons until then.  My daughter had her gallbladder removed a couple years ago, it came on quite suddenly. 

Gallbladder problems sure seems common with RNY so I might not be exempt from this.

Hope you are having a good day and thank you for being one of the supporters of this board.
