Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Oh, the noises coming out of me these days... (possibly TMI haha)

Maybe it won't go away altogether, but it does seem to have at least quieted down a bit for now. LOL It's not gone but just not as constant as it was for awhile there. The rumbling tummy is almost all the way gone. The other? Just less, not gone.

(Those burps ARE sneaky, though, aren't they??? Goodness!)

I can only laugh will all of you. One week post op my hubby and I were sitting watching the race on Sunday and all of a sudden my stomach went at it. My husband actually turned the sound off of the TV and said he wanted to confirm it was me and not the cars going around the track.... I had hoped that once I started eating food rather than drinking liquid some peace would prevail..... Sometimes it's funny and sometimes it is not. Most of the time I have to say it's been funny. My hubby laughs so hard that I can't help but laugh with him.

LMAO, Ann, LOVE IT!!!! I've actually quieted down the past few days, I've been having a love hate thing with food all week, actually since my fill, I DON'T WANT TO EAT, And guess what?? That causes gas too!! but it was like the post op sholder pain gas yesterday, and have you (or anyone else) had those frustrating days when Your all set to eat, and someone (*ahem* your boss) Just comes along and says something SOOO out of context that you lose your appitite completely??? That was yesterday, I basically skipped Breakfast, and was all set to order my lunch, and the boss said something to upset/piss me off, that I didn't end up eating for another 2 hours, basically forced myself to eat b/c I HAVE TO EAT and ended up skipping dinner last night..... But have no fear, I've been heavily Liquidizing myself with like the hugest bottle of Water throughout the day. All I have to say is DAMN this whole economic job situation because I would be out of there if it wasn't so hard to find another job. :thumbup:

You poor thing, Sarah. I know you've had to work really long hours, too. What kind of place do you work at? This economic crisis is awful. I'm just glad that we have something positive going on right now -- our super amazing bodies are emerging! :thumbup:

Hang in there!!!

I work in a real estate office as a receptionist. It's been pretty nuts the past few weeks. I don't know if my boss is going through menopause or There is something "BIGGER" behind the scenes, but NO human being should be treated the way I have been for the past 2 weeks, to the point where I've already touched up my resume, sent it out and am lining up interviews for my day off next week. I'm in that conundrum of being Extremely overworked and underpaid. I can bitch and complain for HOURS at this point, which Is a sign to start looking and quit before I get fired *knock on wood*

Okay, I'm 4 days post-op and totally get where you are coming from with the noises coming out of my middle region. I've always been able to burp quite easily and sometimes it's a little noisy when I chose. Now....OMG...the rumbling makes the cat look at me funny. Everything is gurgling around and I'm still on complete liquids. Can't wait to start solid foods and see what happens to both ends. I still think it's funny, even on my self, but today will be my first day back at work and hopefully my cube mate won't be able to hear me. LOL.

Have a great day.:tongue_smilie:

man.... i'm right there with you guys now on this one!

my fiance and i actually CHEER when i burp now, though, cuz it means less pressure!

i've always been pretty "lady-like" around him, and i'm not quite sure how long he'll think it's "cute" for me to be belching every time i move.

but after reading this thread, i'll have to tell him he's lucky it's coming out the top and not the bottom! :tongue_smilie:

This is all very distressing. I had hoped it would "pass" by now - I'm single and ready to start dating again but I almost don't dare because this is going to be so hard to hide if we go to dinner.< /p>

If the guy is "right" he won't care about the noise. Go ahead and date, it would be a great stress test for him. Hopefully he has a great sense of humor.

My husband has a very noisy stomach and always has. If I put my ear on his stomach, it's as noisy as mine now. He is a little overweight and the noisy stomach has been there for a long time. I would ask him if he could hear it or feel it and he says sometimes, but it doesn't bother him.

Wishing you all a quieter day!

      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!!
