Thanks for all the tips and hint's from all you veterans! I have that problem too and if I drink too soon after eating, it hurts! We are all so used to using our liquids to help the food go down and now after surgery it's a hard habit to break. But it too, will soon be ingrained in our brain as "habit".. ( I hope!)

I eat a piece of sugar free hard candy after eating (like a peppermint or Werthers original) that helps me not to be thirsty until my time has passed and I am ok to drink, our plan is for one hour after eating, either way the candy makes it easier.
