I have mastered the art of sipping. Even before I got my first fill I figured out if I drink fast it comes back up.

You probably just need time to adjust to your recent fill.

I noticed after my last fill as well I was having a hard time with cold liquids making my band too tight. I ask for no ice when I go out now or when I take it out the fridge I leave it sitting on the counter for a few minutes.

I've recently noticed this as well. Drinking ice Water at a restaurant guarantees I will get stuck.

Drinking ice cold Water by itself also makes me quite gurgley! My cubemate makes fun of me, so I try to drink hot tea first thing in the morning to loosen my band up, then I drink from a slightly chilled water bottle the rest of the day.

Only at night if I wake up to have something to drink. I used to take something from the fridge, but now I've learned to just get tap Water to sip. I used to be like someone was punching me in the chest and it would come back up too. So, it's been a hard lesson to learn not to guzzle cold liquids at night :)

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
