  2. I had my surgery last Monday and day by day its getting better for pain. However, is my stomach supposed to gurgle all day? I also don't drink milk so that has nothing to do with it. I drink all day to stay hydrated and walk what I'm supposed to do. Could it be gas? If so is this a forever thing? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My cravings are outrageous 5. The worst is smells, they make me sooo nauseous Thought I'd put up how I have felt today bc it's been a trip of gas more gas and nausea.
