"My Dr said small sips while eating was o.k."
Would someone please post this for "newstartforme". (She blocked me)
She was quite emphatic that her Dr. (Carlos Ferrari from TX) said it was o.k. to take small sips while eating.

Perhaps someone could refer her to the "Resources"..."life after surgery" section.
It discusses drinking while eating.

Sometimes at the end of meal, i would have a couple bites of fruit, like grapes, pineapple, etc. to help moist my mouth. That was suggested by my NUT.

You're right. It's not nutrition is it? - it's the feeling of being full. Gets there faster and you feel less full and can eat more.
I was just reading about people who lose too much who are suggested to "break the rules" so they can snack more in between meals.
