Sleeved, now what to do about the gurgling noises?



Recommended Posts

I was released this afternoon from the hospital. I hated their Protein Shakes, way too sweet, so drank milk. Now that I am home, I am noticing a ton of loud gurgling noises coming from my new stomach. I want to finish half of my shake, but these noises are freaking me out.

Help? Advice? Should I just do broth for a couple days and slowly add the shakes?

They are now our new normal. We gurgle. It's ok. we are going to gurgle no matter what, so I learned to ignore my little gurgler.

Ok, it makes me nervous to eat Protein. I figured, I would stay with broth and light liquids for a couple days, then add the shakes by the weekend.

Does gas x help the bubbles??

The gurgle is annoying, but normal. As a matter of fact, the gurgling was so loud when I went to bed tonight that my husband was freaking out about the noise. My kids think that it is hilarious, especially when it is quiet and my gurgler goes off.

I'm over 2.5 years out - and I still gurgle... its something you will get used to. - Also my throat makes noises - not so much a burp - but more a burp inside my throat - thats 'normal' too - well it is for me. Congrats on getting the surgery

@ I have the throat gurgling thing too. Good to know it not unusual. I didn't figure it was too weird, since I've been doing really great since my surgery.

I'm almost 3 months out and I have loud gurgles for about 15 minutes after every meal and then it stops

My gurgling mostly stopped several weeks after surgery once the swelling had gone down. Now it's only occasional.

I have the gurgling too especially after I eat and that also is away for me to know I am full. ;-)

      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. 🤞
