Learned a lesson today
I learned how to actually sip. lol. I was so sick all day. everytime i ate or drank it came right back up. So i called my dr.'s PA. She did the barium test and something else to see if i had any leaks or a problem with my esophegus. Everything was great inside.She taught me how to drink. I am still swollen in one area and it is a pretty small hole stuff has to pass through thats why i was not able to hold anything down She showed me how to drink. I feel a million times better now. Although i just wanna gulp down an ice cold drink.
Oh and i lost 9 lbs so far.

This has got to be the MOST difficult thing for me to do!! I'm the type of person who can drink 20oz of Crystal Light in 20 minutes or less! =P
I try to sip only as much to swish around my mouth now.

Sipping takes practice. Hubby keeps getting on my case late at night because I haven't sipped most of the day (which is how I drank pre-op, too.) I always drank the majority of my fluids late late night. So it's definitely something we ALL have to work at!! This is MUCH harder than not drinking anything with meals!
