Hi People,

Do any of you experience really LOUD tummy noises immediately after (or even sometimes during) eating?

When I'm home I don't mind since I'm alone, but at work (especially when it's quiet), it's really embarassing.

Is this caused by something specific? Can anything be done about it?

Thanks!

My stomach made a lot of noise right after surgery. However, a few weeks after surgery it isn't quite as loud unless I eat something gassy like chili.

I'm over two months out and mine still does it. :(

I had the bypass and mine does this only 2 weeks post op today, had an appointment with my NUT in Monday and she said the noises are the stomach cleaning itself.

Noisy tummy always here....always after eating, no matter what it is or how much I've chewed it. It's just my new "normal".

My tummy sounded like a dinosaur fight for months.

Hahaha yes! That's exactly what it sounds like!!!

It's just embarassing, but I wonder if it sounds as loud to someone else as it does to me.

Yep. It's as loud as my dogs' stomachs. What's shocking is that a loud as it is I would figure there would be some form of pain associated with it but nope.

Nope. No pain at all. So bizarre.

Mines horrible. We named him Oscar; the lion in my tummy.

My surgeon said it's "waves" coming up from your small intestine during digesting/moving fluids through your body. He showed me it during my post op upper GI. It was pretty interesting to watch...and hear.

I was just thinking this today. I'm 8 months out and my stomach makes all kind of noise. My husband always telling me need to eat your hungry. Told him many time doesn't mean I need to eat or hungry. He finally stopped after realizing my stomach make noise while eat after eating. Think it's still angry at me for having 85% cut out. [emoji3]

      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.
