Gurgling...I was so embarrassed



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I am so happy for this forum! I have had my band since April and have had four fills. I got my most recent fill a week ago and I feel a good amount of restriction this time. I was in a meeting today and when I drank my coffee, I could hear a gurgling sound. I tried to play it off and everyone was talking so no one heard anything. I took another sip and it happened again. It was like you could hear the liquid going down to the stomach. Has anyone experienced this? I have not told anyone at work that I have the band but if this keeps up, I may have to say something..LOL.

I have not been banded but I have thought about tummy noises. I have a friend that has had the gastric bypass and I have heard her tummy noises. I probably will play it off if not hey it is what it is....

Hey April

I was banded on July 31st and I know exactly what your talking about:sneaky:

It has happened to me recently but no one was around. For me I think i drank to fast. try taking small sips ( as if you are sipping on tea) when drinking

Dont tell anyone unless your comfortable. Your tummy could be making noises for a number of reasons...just look around like your wondering yourself whose tummy is singing :biggrin:

My stomach has been doing the gurgling sound and I have been bringing food back up as well if I don't chew properly and it's too big to go down. So I am going to get some Fluid removed at my next fill appointment on the 3rd of September.

      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.
