Depends: It depends on how much ice you eat. Ice is frozen water. Depending on the size of your stomach the amount you injest will determine the amount of swelling. Since you had bypass your stomach will be smaller. Everything in moderation. By the way, If you are craving ice, wanting to eat ice it can be a symptom of iron deficiency. Look up Pica. Make sure you followup with your doctor and nutritionist
