Im newly banded (10 days), today and yesterday, my stomach really hurt when I had cold Water b4 lunch! I've read here tht ppl say tht having Hot Drinks makes them feel good and eat better... so is cold water or drinks a bad choice in general? or it has nothing to do wth wt Im feeling? Its too hot when Im outside I really need a cold drink...

Cold drinks will be the bane of your existance Mornings especially it is very painful for me I usually drink Decaf coffee or caffine free teas. I can usually drink colder stuff later in the afternoon and in the evening but if drank too quick they hurt really bad and sometimes actually come back up. You have to remember your stomach is a muscle and with any muscle when something cold touches it, it likes to constrict

Try room temperature Water. That goes down easier for me. You don't "need" cold drinks, you just became accustomed to them. People survived eons before electricity and cold drinks were readily available.

If you do try a cold drink, you may have to take tiny sips for it not to be uncomfy.

If there cold ! I don't drink them.

If I get a Lemonade, I haven't done that yet.

I will slowly sip.

Tap Water is fine, it's not to cold.

Otherwise it hurts to much for me.

There's nothing wrong with cold drinks. But if they hurt, then lay off them for a while. You are still healing. I don't have any problems with ice Water or other ice cold drinks. You just might not want to drink something that cold right before eating.
