Hello! My surgery was April 9 and I feel great. No issues. Mild discomfort. Question is every sip sounds like my stomach is going crazy! Lol. Tons of gurgling. Normal?

Totally. It will do it like crazy for atleast the first month. Over everything. If it bothers you you can take the gas x melts, They help a lot.

Mine does to. I was sleeved 3 days ago. I just sent my sister for gas x. It's the only thing causing pain!

Growling is normal, I still have it along with occasional hiccups.

I'm for weeks out and my stomach still growls at me everyday! I guess that's its way of letting me know to send down some food since I don't have the "Hunger Hormone" in there anymore. Rught after I eat something, it stops for about 3 hours, then it starts up again and I also have a slight hiccup as well, but I can live with all of this because I'm feeling and looking better every day! :D

Mine is making all sorts of loud noises! It's embarrassing because it's so loud. Like others, I don't feel any pain and I'm not hungry, my sleeve is just obnoxious. :o

My husband always says "gseundheit" or "say that again?" when my stomach makes noises. It's embarrasing but I can't help but crack up when he does it!

Wow am I happy to hear that, I was starting to think something was wrong with me. Every time I eat something it sounds like a party going on. I was afraid that my body was telling me that I eat too much. Glad to hear everyone else is experiencing this. Anyone have any suggestions to the puree stage. Is there anything I should avoid or can I have pretty much what I want within reason just pureed? ?

I was sleeved April 9 as well and this noise is why I named my new tummy "Chewbacca". Sounds like a Wookie party in there!

      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.
