11th post - Liquid Diet

Mar 08, 2012

Today I talked with Dr. K’s nurse; I needed some help because I couldn’t stop swallowing gulps of air when sipping.  She had me start using a straw to drink from, even though all their information says not too.  She said I was one of those people that using a straw may be the only way to stop taking in so much air.  Well, she was right.  The straw has helped enormously.  I still get a little air but nothing like before.  Hopefully this will help me to up my fluid intake.  I am still having a problem getting in my protein.  I have to force myself to drink the hot chocolate now.  I am on the countdown to next week when I can start getting my protein by real food!!
