Does your stomach ever growl?



Recommended Posts

Do you ever get hungry. - like tummy growling hungry?? Like empty feeling in the pit of your stomach hungry? How does full feel? Like after a big thanksgiving dinner, or just a tightness in your chest?

Yes and it hurts when it growls...like waves of pain.

Mine growled all the time after surgery. No pain however. Now-once in a while- and sometimes after a big meal.

Mine growls alot but not a hunger kind of growl more like a movement or things getting into place with no pain. I don't get hungry anymore I just have to remind myself to eat so that I can make my daily Protein goals. Head hunger is my worst enemy. :angry: I see my family eat and I think I want it. The best part of it is a couple of bites and I feel full like I just ate a big thanksgiving meal and with it comes the feeling of one more bite and it is all coming back up. When I am having a tightness in my chest I have either not chewed my food up good or ate to fast. (i do this alot if reading while eating)

A better question might be "does your stomach ever stop growling?". Lol. No pain but it talks up a storm!

Mine doesn't growl but when I first had surgery the stabbing pain I felt I quickly learned was to let me know to eat something. Now I try and beat that pain and eat a little Protein something every 3 hours. when I am not sleeping ha!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
