Does anyone else have this problem? I'm actually getting looks from co-workers while at lunch! It's so embarrassing! Will this always happen???

I get that too sometimes, I don't think it has happened around anyone yet, seems like it's more after I drink Water. I look forward to hearing what others have to say.

It happens to me every single time I drink any type of liquid, and it's uncontrollable, so it's highly embarrassing! I've resorted to ensuring that I'm nowhere near anybody when I'm drinking and even eating sometimes will do that too. I wish it would go away. I'm almost 6 months post-op and no improvement on that.

As I read your post, I am having gurgling sounds. And yes my family can hear it loud and clear. It even happens when I am lying in bed ..I just are chicken curry with 1/3 cup of brown rice. My stomach had tough time with the brown rice.. That is why my gurgling is occurring now. .it also happens when I gulp Water or drink lots of water. I don't get embarrassed when I am on front of others and it happens. It is just part of my new life now :))

I had what I called "dinosaurs fighting" in my tummy for the first 6 weeks after surgery. It would wake me and my fiancé up in the middle of the night. It only happens occasionally now, like not even once a week. So have hope, it gets better for some people :-)

Still happens to me. If I find I'm in a situation with others around me and it's especially loud, I talk back to it. I've gotten some of my friends to do it also. It's just one of those things.

I'm still pre-op and this already happens to me. I guess it's going to get worse???!

Yep, it happens to me as well. Less the further post-op I get. But Soup pretty much always makes it happen.

      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.
