I had an issue with cold Water. It was like my sleeve tenses up and limits the amount of water. However, I could drink a room temperature fine.

If nothing else cold or hot was giving you an issue, maybe it is more of a mindset thing. Are you a person that usually liked water? If not, you may have to put flavoring to the water.

I ate a lot of things at room temperature because too cold would not go down and too hot would hurt too.

Hot / warm Water is MUCH easier for me. A bottle of cold water takes me forever but tea is a breeze

Me too - for several weeks I had to put some hot into my glass of Water to make it a bit tepid. Cold water gave me quite a pain, even room temperature - but like you, it was fine in a Smoothie!

Thankfully, now that has passed...

Cold Water makes me sick. I want to vomit it back up once it goes down. It's the only thing I've had a real issue with so far.

Yes i had my surgery in sept and i still cant drink cold Water, it has to be warm with no trace of coldness at all. I let the hot water run and get it just before it gets hot, thats the only way i can keep it down

I talk to my doctor and she says it's the acidity in the Water and that I need to drink alkaline water so when I started to drink alkaline water I really can feel the difference

YES! I'm over a year out and I still have a little trouble with ice cold Water. It took me around 8 months to be able to stomach plain water - I used crystal light in room temp water, hot tea and Decaf coffee up until that point.

I still don’t like cold plain Water since surgery. Hot tea works though!

It's to do with the surface tension of the plain Water. Adding a little cordial should help. I still have trouble with water nausea 4 years post op.

      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.
