VERY noisy stomach?



Recommended Posts

I'm 6.5 months out and I've started to experience an extremely noisy tummy in the last few weeks.

I mean reeeeally loud and long gurgling at the most inopportune times! 😅

I'm not overly bothered by it, but I do wonder why it's started now?

Anyone else know?

In better news, I've lost 92lbs in that time. I'm well chuffed with that.

Yep, about 3 or 4 months out my stomach sounded like something from the movie Alien lol It's really annoying, and a little embarrassing, but it is what it is.

Mine started the 1st bite of food too. It's pretty loud but I just laugh. Still happy with my decision.

Mine does it all the time. It’s doing it now. LOL! It’s like my own personal poltergeist rattling the chains. I spoke to my surgeon’s associate & she says it was just my digestive system doing what it’s supposed to do: digest food. It can rumble & squelch for a time after we eat because food digests at different rates. How noisy our system is now is probably just one of those idiosyncrasies that’s personal to us & that some experience & others don’t.

Oh, and a rumbling, grumbling tummy in most cases is not a sign of you being hungry as we were always told.

      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.
