I am one week today. Certain foods make the gurgling act up more than others. Yesterday was my first cream Soup. Delish? Yes! Gurgle, burp, gurgle? Yeah! I ate a gasX chewable to help. Was allowed to have GasX even in hospital. Now I eat one before soup or broth. Even though they are fat free, they still bother me. This morning, however, the gas pain was pretty bad - marching in place and pumping my arms like an idiot helps it escape! (Such a Lady, I am!-lol)

3 day out. Was wondering if I can take Gas-X strips. HELP!! The nurse at the hospital said I couldn't take them. Thanks guys.

Call your doctor's office! There were some things the nurse told me not to take/do but when I called my doctor, i was told those things were ok. Go figure!

Thanks' date=' my time!

I'm doing very well. My parents have been amazing at helping me remember to sip, sip, sip & Protein, Protein, protein! My only issues at this point are that my navel incision is still pretty sore & my middle back is killing me. (Well, those things AND the amusing gurgling!!)

How are YOU doing? You must be on phase 4 by now, right?[/quote']

Phase 4 startes Monday. I have been sort of I a stall for the past week and half. Only lost 2 pounds. I know. That is better than not at all. Feel great though. Still get tired after work. But getting better. Let me know how you progress . BTW, did you get my PM last Sunday?

Hi Susan, I had my sleeve done the same day as you and my biggest problem is all of this gurgling... so annoying and loud. This def was not in my surgery packet or I might have reconsidered. A large part of my job involves taking business partners out to dinner. I already accepted that I would be ordering Soup but having my tummy be such an embarrassment is scaring me so much! I don't want to get laughed at or made fun of anymore!

I'm one month out and I gurgle more now that I'm progressing through the food phases. But, I can tell you I will take a little gurgling in order to be healthy! I'm so pleased with my sleeve and excited about the future, I'll take my noisy little stomach!!

      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?
