Feeling something strange

Ok I really don't know how do desribe this but, I am feeling something new in my body.  It is in the lower left side and it feels strange sometimes after I eat like I can actually feel food moving through or maybe my stomach expanding.  I don't know, or is it I have been fat so long that I could not feel it before.  I really don't know how to desribe it.  It is like a big bubble moving, no not gas :).  Has anyone had this exeperience.  I am 8 months out.

Wendy, does it feel like somethings stuck and/or moving slowly?  How bad is the pain?  Are you having bowel movements?  Passing gas?

I've been noticing the same thing too.  It feels like the food is slowly moving through.  Sometimes I also get really bad cramps but they only last a few seconds, then I don't feel it anymore.  Mine just started since I reached goal.  Man, our bodies do weird things.

I think since our systems are not covered with inches and inches of fat we are just more aware of it! I get this feeling and it is really weird but my guts are right up on my abdominal wall(per one of my surgeons!).It is a very strange occurance but you get use to it- it actually makes me giggle because it reminds me how far I have come. Don't know about the pain involved with it unless it is gas, that can be painful!

It is not painful.  It just feels funny.  Like when you are pregnant and you feel a hand or foot traveling.  Just weird.
