It is so weird that you should say that, because I have been hearing the same thing! I just assumed it was some kind of gastro-intestinal disturbance due to something I ate! In fact, mine is doing it right now! Mine seems to do it more when I eat a lot of veggies--have you noticed a pattern with yours? I don't hear it only when I'm laying down though. I'm not sure what it is but it is weird for sure!

I am so glad I am not alone , mine is mostly at night when I lay down , I am not sure about the foods that I ate ( if there is a pattern) I will try to pay attention next time ,,, Good luck .Nellie from NYC

I'm not sure if this is what you are talking about but I too hear that "gargle" sound too lately (I am not banded yet:huytsao ). I think it's after I drink alot of liquids and immediately lay down and it's also due to gas that I've been having more of lately as well.

Mine makes all kinds of noises, sometimes it downright embarrasses me! I'm glad I eat lunch at a different time than everyone else or they would definitely wonder what I had under my top!:biggrin1:

I'll often ask my boyfriend, 'Did you hear that'? Seems that since I was banded I hear my gurling, and others dont - MOST of the time. But the times they do; the looks I get are funny!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
