I think the gurgling goes on for a little while. I did; however, puree some cream of potato Soup and strain it for any chunks and the starch in that seemed to help stop some of the gurgling (acid moving around in the stomach).

Also, I take a Prilosec 40mg daily - which really helps in that area too.

Good Luck!

The gurgling is the worst part of this while thing ... For me anyway. Gas X strips really help.

3.5 months out and I still gurgle. Trying to just get used to it, lol. And I'm on a PPI.

And gas-x, I only used them the first 5 days or so. Sure would have had so much more discomfort without it. I wonder why some people aren't allowed?

Not sure, but I feel like they are a life saver. The gurgling is annoying and embarrassing.

Hi Susan

Nice to see you are up and moving. How are you feeling?

Thanks, my time!

I'm doing very well. My parents have been amazing at helping me remember to sip, sip, sip & Protein, Protein, protein! My only issues at this point are that my navel incision is still pretty sore & my middle back is killing me. (Well, those things AND the amusing gurgling!!)

How are YOU doing? You must be on phase 4 by now, right?

      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.
