Hi,

I'm 9 days post-op, and I'm off clears-only and have been enjoying cream-of-whatever Soups. I had some split-pea Soup this morning, but when I took a drink of Protein Water (about an hour later), my stomach started growling like crazy! My stomach hasn't made this much noise since pre-op hunger. Anyone experienced this?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, it's normal. Especially when you are still on mainly liquids. It gets better.

My stomach was doing the same thing and my surgery was 6/2. It settled (quieted) down when I started taking the Prevacid my doctor prescribed.

Sleeved on 6/10/10 and mine is as noisy as anything...Feels like it is gurgling all of the time with just Water and Protein powders. I like to think that it is just a Pacman eating away my fat.
