hello everyone!

I just recently had Gastric Sleeve surgery on 06/18/2018. I was home from the hospital the following morning. Feeling great, getting all of my exercise in, having no trouble with Fluid, or getting my Protein in (so far, cross your fingers for me!).

Is it normal for my stomach to produce a mating call any time it's given any sort of liquid?

I'd say it's "normal" in that your stomach is still healing so it's possible the liquids are triggering the nerves responsible for triggering the noises. Unless it's just some bubbling from the liquids making their way through, should ease up once the swelling is gone.

Hi Weight of Mind congratulations on a successful surgery. I know sometimes mine once in awhile can make almost obscene LOL noises. My dr. Was running late the other day and it decided to do what you called a mating call. I think it was a combo call of ok I’ve got Water where’s my Protein, it’s time it’s time. I think now we just have to be more in tune with our body and it’s needs not it’s want. Sounds like you’re right on track have a happy, healthy, blessed journey.🙏👏👏🤗

My stomach gurgles and squeaks like a pod of dolphins. I'm pushing seven months out. I think this is just the new normal. Noisey assed stomach!

Weight of Mind, I was also sleeved on 6/18/18 and my new sleeve makes a considerable amount of noise. I attribute it to the trapped gases making their way out of my abdomen. Sounds like you’ve had a relatively easy recovery thus far, congrats.

I am almost 8 weights out and I could have a conversation with my stomach. I would say it is normal.

Oh gosh yes, my stomach is so loud. I have a list of excuses to recycle because it's that bad. It does get better though. I find mine is the worst within the first 30-45 mins after a meal. Sometimes it will do it when I'm drinking though, and that's when its really annoying.

Exactly the same here at 4 months. Empty, full, with Water, without water, it's noisy!

I named mine bob. I figured something that talked so much should have a name.

I like that "Bob" find you realize it could also stand for Belly On Board? I named my itty bitty gastric ulcer, Hector, I figured it might Hector and nag me if I didn't swear off NSAIDS and not follow a more bland gastro-friendly diet from now on!😪

I had my Gastric Sleeve surgery & my hiata hernia repaired on 6/19/18. My recovery hasn't been easy. My stomach does make alot of noise and my chest feel tight. But still hoping to recover as soon as possible.

      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.
