Why do I have stomach aches before it is time to eat?

I've been told to eat every two hours, which helped alot during the day. Water does nothing, sometimes makes it worst. But I wake up with the same constant ache from not eating all night while asleep. It's annoying and my wls doc don't seem to know what it is. My primary doc is running tests.???? But other then that, the food I eat is considered normal and healthy and I exercise everyday and is losing weight (45 pounds in two months (Dec 1, 2005)). But this stomach ache is like an alarm clock or a reminder to start eating, because the ache will go away when I eat. After two hours, hungry or not....ache, ache, ache....What is that? The ache reminds me of an old bladder infection I had many years ago. The ache is centered around my navel area.
