Stomach growling a lot today

Hi guys, I am 5 weeks post op today. For some reason, today my stomach is growling a lot. This is the first time this has happened since the surgery. Any ideas? Anyone else experienced this?

I hope so. The growling is sending the hungry message to my brain! Not good! Lol

I am over a year post op and my stomach still growls/makes noises occasionally. Sometimes I drink some Water and other times I just ignore it.

Hi I'm 3 years out and it something you need used to. It's one of those side effects we forget to talk about. Some days it will make lots of noise and other days nothing. It is not because you are hungry

Yeah my stomach talks to me all the time, loudly. And it's not a hunger thing. Sometimes it's digesting sometimes it's just talking. I'm three years out.

Is it a hunger growl? Are you satisfied/full when you eat? Increasing fluids is hard but it helps with healing and weight loss. Do your best to try to get your fluids up. Try different fluids. I like the crystal light fruit punch. Also no sugar added hot chocolate. I add it to 10-12oz instead of the 6oz of Water the box calls for. It helps put me at my fluids goal. Somethings i can drink quickly others not so much. How much protein are you able to get?
