For me, every swallow gurgled at the beginning and I thought it was annoying as well. Mine only last about 1 1/2- 2 weeks and now I don't really ever have it (I'm just 3 weeks postop tomorrow). Not sure if it might be related to swelling of the stomach after surgery or something? I have heard other people say they still have it further out.

If I drink too quickly or drink and then lay down I had the loudest gurgling I have ever heard! It is really crazy. It also happens sometimes when I am at work....and my if I am with a client its a little embarassing!

I still have gurgling 10 months out. However, it is way less and also it depends on the foods I eat. Some Proteins seems to give me much more gurgling and more intense and loud too! But it does get better. For me though, it did not get better till several months out. I would joke after my first bite: "let the gurgling begin!" My husband could actually hear it!!!!! :-)

Yep, but this too shall pass. It was almost comical at first and I had to sleep on my right side (left side made it gurgle and blurp almost constantly). I don't remember exactly when it settled down but it did.

I gurgle when I drink a lot of fluids or with certain foods. It's loud sometimes, but it doesn't bother me.

      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.
