RobinGirl 34 Posted June 29, 2012 I'm on day 3 post op and I'm doing great. The gas in my shoulders is almost gone and I'm getting around pretty good. The funny thing is that my tummy sounds like a monster lives in it. It growls and gurgles constantly. I'm keeping up on my Protein Drinks (about 80 Protein grams/ day) and lots of other fluids. Last night I was able to resume normal "movements" so I'm not holding anything in. I just find the constant gurgling and growling funny. Even my dog noticed it.

highland 168 Posted June 29, 2012 I here ya! I had those growling and gurgling noises for about 6 months then they completely went away. Now at a year out my throat gurgles! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cazzy 725 Posted June 29, 2012 It is one of the pleasure in being banded that we suddenly develop a body that is capable of making noises u never even dreamed of.. welcome to banderland Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MonsterGirl 1 Posted June 29, 2012 I totally understand how you feel. I would be sitting in the middle of a college class and my friends next to me would start cracking up because my stomach was making so much noise. Lets just say it still does it even after almost 4 months and 1 fill but not as much. It really makes me laugh. I have found that drinking Water while it does it really helps, especially when I am not able to "feed" the monster inside. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
