I'm 3 days out and drinking ice Water hurts going down. Why does that happen? Its so hot here in Chicago and in my house, I'm trying to cool off with a tall cool glass of ice water but it hurts going down.

You will be sensitive to very cold and very hot for a while. It's because of your nerves healing. Room temp Water was my friend for a long time. I'm 6 weeks out and ice water is just now tasting good to me.

I had surgery a year ago and I still can't drink ice cold water ... It gets better over time

That's funny cause I have to drink cold/ice Water. Warm water makes me nauseous and doesn't seem to quench my thirst.

I prefer warm. You know when you leave your water bottle in the car on a hot summer day for a few hours and it gets really warm? Yup! That's how I like it...

I'm almost 3 mo out and I can just now tolerate colder liquids. I loved ice water before but post op it was very uncomfortable for me. Cool not cold seems to be ok. Miss the ice water.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
