My sleeve is always doing something. The little guy is just busy all the time. I was told to expect it and it'll quiet down after a few months. Everybody's different just focus on something else and watch what you eat.

I ask the nurse practitioner for my program about the growl because it embarrassed me especially public. She told me that it is just the digestive process. The stomach is so different and much small so you can actually hear the action of you stomach. I am 6 months out and my stomach is loud as ever. It even starts while I am eating. Some say that it goes away and others say it just hangs around, it just depends on each person.

Hope that was helpful

Early post op I had to brace my abdomen if a cough or sneeze was coming on. Didn't want any pain or injury to my new baby stomach.

Now that I have a noisy toddler, when I am in company, I again have to brace my abdomen and hope that it will shut up soon! I don't care at home, but when out, especially in non-noisy places, the loud gurgling can be really annoying ....

      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.
