Gurgling stomach still throws me for a loop..sometimes



Recommended Posts

So fellow vets do you ever catch yourself analyzing your stomach gurgles? Out of no where my stomach will gurgle and I start to think about when was the last time I ate and then I start asking myself if it is a sign of hunger or just typical band noise. :P

Ya'll make me grin! :lol: . I sometimes have gurgling for gurgling sake! Sometimes I gurgle for hunger, but not usually! :rolleyes: Karen

I've pretty much resigned myself to think that gurgling is just old food working it's way down the line it has nothing to do with whether I actually need to replace that food yet.

Sometimes it gurgles as I eat. Maybe it's saying - thanks , about time.

I still gurgle after 7 years... I never know when it's going to happen. I've had it happen at various times of the day and night.... sometimes it's VERY loud. For me it's just my band telling me "Hey... I"m here and I'm working".

Don't laugh (ok I know people you will laugh) but a few years ago I recored my gurgling using the mic. on my webcam and when I played in back it sound like an earthquake... and yes I have a lot of spare time on my hands !!!

I'm going into my 8th year of being a bandster... and just yesterday while having coffee with a friend my band started "taking" to me. I wasn't hungry... it last for about 3 minutes.

My band can gurgle at any time... and it's VERY loud. I've mentioned it to my doctor and he said that it is nothing to worry about that it could be air.,. and it very common. It's does hurt. For me it's just a reminder that my band is still doing it's job.

Now... if it stops gurgling I might start to worry :)

My grand children just laugh when they hear the sounds coming out. They refer to the sound as an Alien.

I guess I will be OK as long as I don't start trying to have a conversation.

Tom since you have it recorded you could make it your rIng tone on your cell phone.

      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.

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
