What's with all of the sound effects?



Recommended Posts

I had surgery on may 10th and I consider the whole ordeal to be a success so far but just wondering if I am the only one who thinks he/ she is having the pod race scene from star wars episode 1 play out in my internals after I ingest anything? Lots of movement, tons of noise but the gas doesn't want to come out? I am considering recording it and trying to get my small intestines a record deal....

Thanks,

Ben

Banded on May 10th in Pensacola Florida by Dr. Jeffrey Lord.

Hi Ben, I got mine on the 10th too and I have the same story so far so I guess it must be normal...

I was banded Feb 23 and I still have those from time to time. Me and my husband just laugh when it goes off. My husband always thinks I am hungry when he hears me all gurgally but I tell him I'm not. I just take it as a reminder of my band and that it is working. :o

LMAO!! i had mine done April 12th,2011. And be prepared, it doesnt go away. it might be good one day and the next sound like a bomb is going off. At our seminars the Vetrans talk about this alot. They just told us to get some gas-x or some other kind of antacid. But i dont think it really helps alot.

I gurgle so loudly other people can hear it. It is especially loud when lying in bed at night.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
