Foods that wont make you gurgle?

This gurgling is so annoying and embarrassing especially at work :(

I noticed with some foods i dont gurgle as much or it's just in my head. Are there foods that you notice make you gurgle louder than others? It's so uncontrollable too! Any suggestions? thoughts? anything?

You will get use to it. I think I gurgle less now than I did right after. Some days water makes me feel like I will guggle, if I hake a big sip. I find as long as I am take small bites and small sips I do not guggle.

I've been banded 2.5 years now and I am used to it, its normal to me but not to others that don't know what I have lol I sit in a cube and i feel like everyone can hear me! it can get pretty loud! and goes on for hours! :(

Fortunately I don't gurgle but maybe you could try shuffling a bunch of papers or running the paper shredder a lot! Just kidding. That's a tough one. I used to gurgle a lot early on but I don't any more. Could it be related to your restriction level? Maybe get a wee bit out and see if that helps.

haha oh i cough, hit the table, staple, trust me i tried it all. LOL no way im not that restricted, i got alot taken out and now slowly filling it back up and i want to some more but im afraid now it'll be even louder!! I might be at a good spot now, maybe that's why im gurgling? I HATE THIS!

have you always gurgled? I was just banded on the 10th but i very rarely do it. I hope it doesn't start after i get a fill.

oh yes gurgling usually happens while I eat too fast or too much. Or it can just happen after i eat telling me that im satisfied. It all depends, it happens when i drink Water, i can hear it going down through the band, kinda creepy lol

I can hear stuff sometimes if I think about it but people around me can't. Speaking of staplers and tricks like that I've found myself asking my coworkers elaborate questions to make them eat slow so I don't look weird taking an hour to eat. Lol. Tricks of the trade I guess.

I am 3 years out and if I am having soup or other liquids and lean forward, I gurgle. I don't like it either. It happens when I lie down at night too.

Omg so I'm not the only one. I'm with you it's so embarrassing. I find soft drink is the worst hence why I rarely drink it now. I have found the tighter my band gets the worse the gurgling. If I have more liquids its worse.

After three years, I still gurgle constantly. My family likes to say its my band talking!

I'm in sales and it happens often while on sales calls and I just laugh it off. Better gurgling than 70 pounds heavier!!!

I am the same. Sitting here now listening to my Breakfast go through my entire body! I am just used to it now. Water does the same too. It can't be "tight" as I have only ever had one fill! I think it is eating too fast, too much air, etc.

I find liquids make the gurgling sounds and its loud

Stand up straight away also makes it worse for me.
