I have been told that cold liquids can cause you to get what was described to me as a brain freeze headache in your stomach. Anyone have or not had those issues?

Have not. My Yeti goes with me everywhere with my ice water inside. Shopping, work, out running errands. I’ve never had an issue.

I was just talking to my bariatric nurse today because I’m having problems getting water down (I used to drink a minimum of 128oz a day!) and she said she still has problems with cold water or any cold beverages. She said she gets what feels like a spasm.. I’ve been drinking room temp water and still can’t. Popsicles es do fine tho ? she is 2 yrs out.

Plain cold water for me is hit or miss. I favor teas and 0 calorie, 0 sugar drinks. Room temp water is where it's at for me. I can usually do just fine with that. But put ice in it and the game changes a bit. Tea is fine cold or hot, i don't know why. But it's a favorite for me. I am 16 months out and many things still give me pause but you take the good with the bad. You just gotta do a little trial and error.
