Not sure what to do....especially since last fill (7 cc in 10 - 5 mos post) I have this uncontrollable bubbling up, obviously of gas but it's definite sounds coming from the throat (yes, I know starting in the stomach). I've tried GasX; no help. It's mainly when I wake up; and that's if it's intentional (the waking) or not.....almost like revelee (sp?) in the morning. Everyone nearby can hear it. At first I thought okay, shouldn't have had that glass of wine....but that wasn't it. I'm barely eating after this last fill. So I can't attribute it to being full; and it's not stomach growling. If I open my mouth and try to force it; it's a little bitty burp - so I know it's gas. Has anyone else experienced this? What can be done? It's embarrassing -- "mommy what's that noise?" is my 2 year old's latest saying.:tongue:

I don't know exactly what that is but I get it too. About once a day now. It isn't a burping but when my family hears it they say "aren't you going to say excuse me?" Well, I would if I burped. Anyway, it never happens at work for some reason although immediately after the surger it did once or twice and fortunately no one was around to hear it.

I don't believe it is an indication of being too tight. There are much more telling signs of being overfilled. I have never been too tight, but still get this bubbling. Honestly I think it is from the types of food I may eat at a given time. I never put a whole lot of effort into tracking it but I am sure if I logged my food and when it happened, there would be a pattern to the food consumption. I have no desire to be filled too tight or even close to that. I would rather aggressively exercise.

      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.
