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 :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
