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]

        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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
