I was wondering if anyone had a tough time in the mornings with drinking? It seems to lessen once i am up for a while but that first sip of coffee in the AM is tight.  Any one else? Ideas? Thanks!!

Yes this is a common problem.  I have the problem too.  Warm drinks are the best because it helps losen the band up a little.  So since I don't drink coffee I alway have a cup of very warm water.  That seems to help.

I don't have the problem with drinking in the morning.  But I do have problems with eating.  I have to drink something before I can eat or else I will get sick.  It's like I need that fluid to open my band up.

Yeah, lots of people do a warm cup of tea or something to loosen up down there.  I drink a protein shake first think every am and then eat a little later to avoid that extra tight feeling when I first wake up.  It goes away in like an hour or so and some days I really don't notice it at all anymore.

Yes I am also like that in the mornings and it's hard to drink anything. The Nurse  told me last week that it's not really because you are too tight but it's because you are too dry.. That really makes a lot of sense. I now go to bed with some water or crystal light so if I wake up I take a small drink and go back to sleep.
