It is so weird that you should say that, because I have been hearing the same thing! I just assumed it was some kind of gastro-intestinal disturbance due to something I ate! In fact, mine is doing it right now! Mine seems to do it more when I eat a lot of veggies--have you noticed a pattern with yours? I don't hear it only when I'm laying down though. I'm not sure what it is but it is weird for sure!

I am so glad I am not alone , mine is mostly at night when I lay down , I am not sure about the foods that I ate ( if there is a pattern) I will try to pay attention next time ,,, Good luck .Nellie from NYC

I'm not sure if this is what you are talking about but I too hear that "gargle" sound too lately (I am not banded yet:huytsao ). I think it's after I drink alot of liquids and immediately lay down and it's also due to gas that I've been having more of lately as well.

Mine makes all kinds of noises, sometimes it downright embarrasses me! I'm glad I eat lunch at a different time than everyone else or they would definitely wonder what I had under my top!:biggrin1:

I'll often ask my boyfriend, 'Did you hear that'? Seems that since I was banded I hear my gurling, and others dont - MOST of the time. But the times they do; the looks I get are funny!

      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.
