Wierd Tummy Noises!!!



Recommended Posts

I don't remember ever reading about this and I am wondering if I am the only one.

I was banded in October and only had restriction after my last fill 10 days ago.

I have been having a "symphony" of noises in my belly...when I am hungry, when I am full, no matter! LOUD noises, all different kinds of noises, from all over my belly...left, right, up, down.

What is this?!?

Sounds like normal adjustments. For a very long time I "gurgled" virtually non-stop. Sometimes it got very loud. Once or twice the people next to me at work thought I had burped, but nope, I was just making noises.

My 2 boss's really get a laugh at it. My band was placed on Tuesday the 8th and it really is getting adjusted to it's new environment.

It got better over time for me, but was almost constant for at least 8 months... and got louder when I ate. Now I really only gurgle when I'm stuck or really full.

I have absolutely no idea what it can be but.....You are not the only one whose stomach makes a symphony of noises.

and it can get quite embarassing.

LOL I'm glad I'm somewhat NORMAL!!!! I keep hearing weird noises, also! One of my students hugged me at school the other day and heard the weird sounds and asked what was going on in my belly! And, the rest of my goofy class had to come listen! HAHA!

Jfran you look amazing! I got my band last Sept. and had those noises. I just realized from this thread that I haven't had them in weeks! I guess it goes away for some of us. It started as soon as I had "restriction". That was 2 months ago, and the sounds have stopped. wee hee!

You sound like a great teacher! I love your sense of humor and comfort with yourself. It really comes through in your post - and you gave me a huge laugh! thanks....

I am just starting my mushies. I hear the gurgling after I eat and just before I have to use the bathroom, so its a good precursor to head over there.:eek:

Snappy,

That tummy grumbling is music to my ears. I think of it as my body slamming the empty cupboards in that big ol' pink pantry (my stomach) and finding out it has to go elsewhere for food. That means it has to fuel my activities from my mounds of stored fat, not from today's meals.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the growling! It is the sound of success!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
