Brief Answer:
Dysbiosis

Detailed Answer:
Hello,,
There is a balance between the good and bad bacteria in gut,whenever the balance is disturbed large amount of food ingested start fermenting.This fermentation releases gases causing belching.
Now as the gas released will cause inflammation in surrounding area( intestine) food won't be properly digested and absorbed causing weight loss.
I would suggest you to take probiotic like VSL#3 two times a day with Pantoprazole once daily for 2 weeks.
Include soft food like Banana Apple Curd and Rice in your diet.
Follow up after 2 weeks.
Thanks.
