In the morning

[MamaOf3 0]

So I have read about so many people being tight in the morning that they do not eat. Does that mean you will have problems drinking Water?

I have definitely PBd Water before. The secret is to sip it and not gulp.

If I could not get Water down at any time of day. i would consider myself too tight and get a little fill taken out.

That would be too tight for me, others don;t feel the same becasue they need/want strong retriction when the band opens later in the day.

I consider myself tight in the morning, but I mean I cannot eat solid foods until lunchtime. I can definitely sip Water. Sometimes I can drink a half a cup of coffee. If I am hungry, I'll have yogurt or Carnation Instant Breakfast. I cannot eat eggs or fruit or Cereal. If you can't drink water, I would imagine you're too tight (I wake up thirsty!).

I consider myself tight because I can't eat solids. But I have no problem drinking a protien shake or slimfast and a cup of coffee. Since I didn't have any solids to wash down I slowly drink at least 2 glasses of Water before lunch.< /p>

does the temperature of fluids you drink tend to affect the band? also, what does PB mean? I'm new....

PB stands for Productive Burp meaning you burp up food. I have seen some use it to refer to vomiting. There is a thread I stumbled across that had the meaning to many of the acronyms used on this site....I saved it as a Favorite.

I cannot eat in the mornings. Anything I drink in the morning that is cold I have to sip. Hot beverages like coffee or hot tea go down almost as they did pre-surgery.

Same here for me, too tight in the AM for food most of the time, or it takes absolutely forever to eat a small amount, so I just have a Protein Shake in the morning. That way I also get my Protein requirement. Good Luck to you.
