Day one post op
Have my gastric sleeve yesterday! Resting in the hospital right now, will be doing the barium test within an hour. My new stomach is rumbling with hunger, so I'll be glad for a little something to drink after the barium test.

Drink, drink, drink. Best thing you can do.
The rumbling is gas. They blow you up like a baloon while they're working under the hood. Walking is the only thing you can really do to get rid of it.
Things may feel awful at first. But every day gets a little better.
6'3" tall, male.
Highest weight was 475. RNY on 08/21/12. Current weight: 198.

Anything you think your stomach is telling you right now is a lie. The "rumbling" is likely gas and if you're feeling hunger it's likely acid.
Sip and walk as much as possible - happy healing!
