Can anyone tell me more about this "gurgling"?

All I can tell you is it's a band thing. I didnt gurgle til I got mine then it went away but after I got my first fill I've been gurgling every since. I think it has something to do with the upper portion of the stomach where the band is goes around and how fast the water can get down. Like water going down a drain. Not sure just making a guess.

I always think of a bathtub drain. All that Water going down that little drain... and the different noises it makes as its "draining".

Well?

thats the same as our banded tummy.

There is NO pain involved, just a little noisy at times! Most of the time my kids and hubby can NOT hear it - only me. But every now and then they can... like when everything is quiet and we are lying in bed, going to sleep. Sometimes my tummy is making digestive sounds, but the new sounds are a little different then the "old" sounds your tummy made.

You get used to it! No biggie!

Now I gurgle all the time and today while on the phone with my nurse she heard it and said that it should not be normal after all. I was told that I need a UpperGI done and then I have to have some fill taken out becuase this is a part of being over filled which can lead to poor weight loss and other problems and I have had very poor weight loss since May of 2007 I ahve lost 103 pounds but that is it I am currently holding at 175 pounds and I look good too. I am toned and not a lot of excess skin hanging around me. I work out all the time. So now after all of this is done I should begin to lose more weight. I need to be at my goal of 145 pounds but will settle for 150.
