Besides the regular noises we all do & so forth & so forth... Are there any bandsters out there who DO NOT HAVE extra noises now since the surgery?

I've never had the excess gas and/or belching that others speak of. I did have the "perculator" sounds going on in my esophagus, but not now.

New Hope- I am happy to hear this is a least one person out there who isn't having the extra noise problems. I hope to be like you but will expect not to when banded. Your definetly a lucky gal.

Well I do have noises, I am the queen of burping now (at least it not at my other end, LOL), my daughter, says she had never before in her whole entire life (she's nine) heard me burp, and now I do it all the time. The kids love it, I guess they like that their mommy can be kinda gross sometimes. They like to tease me about it.

I wish !!!

my body makes noises when the food goes through the band sometimes. Not as much now that my band is pretty loose, but, people use to look at me funny sometimes as my food was leaving my pouch. it was a gurgle noise different from when your stomach growls and different than gas.

I know what you mean about burping. that can be embaressing sometimes. I have gotten so use to doing that, that sometimes I forget it isn't polite in public lol

HEYYYYYY, what was that? Did someone step on a duck?
