I burp. It's not the same as a regular burp. I can barely feel a slight gasy feeling. That's my que not to take another bite. If I'm not paying close attention, or eating too fast, I get a burp that hurts a little....that was my cue I over ate.
I get the hiccups but its a few minutes after I have eaten, not immediately after. So it's not a warning that I'm overeating just a consequence. My mom whose also had surgery will begin sneezing almost immediately.
