By "screaming," do you mean making a lot of noise, or do you mean that you're in pain?

If the latter, give your doctor a call; you should not be in tremendous pain.

If the former, well---there is lots of new noise. But a lot of it has to do with how much air you gulp in when you eat. Are you eating very slowly? Taking small bites and chewing thoroughly? Avoiding Fluid during meals (and drinking them without a straw when you do drink)? Avoiding carbonation?

These things help tone down the bellychatter :thumbdown:

Hah. It stops. Once and awhile mine will gurgle but it's not as bad as it was in the beginning. Make sure you are drinking your fluids. It does help.

if it is anything like mine was it was a lot of gas. If you are eatting slow and small bites then watch what you eat some foods might give you gas

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
