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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
