Haha I'm really not sure that I am spelling this right. Anyway. So, you how when you are SUPER hungry and your belly talks to you? It kinda gurgles and makes these loud noises? Of course along with it comes the awful feeling of being so hungry that the reason your belly is making those noises leads you to believe that it just might eat it's self.
Well...mine does it ALL the time these days. The only difference is that the hunger feeling doesn't come along with it and it is typically after I eat when it starts gurgling the most. I'm not totally sure why it does this but I suspect it is because the part of my stomach that is not attached to my pouch that actually holds the food, is still creating all the acids so that when the food gets into the intestines the acid will be there to meet up and break down the food. Now, I don't know this to be fact...that is just WLS according to Liz.
This is what I DO know...It's LOUD. I thought I was alone in this until I was sitting in my support group meeting last week and the woman next to me had her daughter sitting on her lap and her belly started to gurgle and her daughter jumped up real quick and looked at her mom and said "Tell it to shut up". We all started laughing and started discussing how our bellies talk to us.
Just another step along the path...may the journey continue....
