I am 2 days post op and every time I eat or drink something my stomach is making all these funny noises? Has anyone experienced this? It doesn't hurt though.

I had that too. I would be at work and it would be embarassing! I had a fill a few weeks ago - I am now at 5cc in a 10cc band and finally feeling some restriction (yeah!). After this last fill, the rumbling pretty much stopped. So give it a little time and it may go away.

Hey, I was banded 7/8 and my stomach started grumbling yesterday (my first day home). I think my body is getting back into the swing of things (going #1 and #2). It did the same thing when I had my galbladder out years ago.

I've been banded almost 3 months and I still occasionally gurgle. Sometimes it's really loud and it never fails to be when I'm around people! LOL. My friends just take it in stride now. It's really fun when it does that sitting in church during prayer time. My new expression: "you could have heard a pin drop or my stomach gurgle" :thumbup:

I am 7 months since surgery and I still get occasional rumbling. My stomach did it a lot at first, probably the first three months. It really is embarassing! But, people understood!:biggrin:

well, my stomach has stopped with the major rumbles. however, 1 month post-op and I could still win some intense burping contests!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
