Im sick with strep throat and a fever, I havent ate anything since Wednesday nor drank much of anything due to the pain. Do I need to force myself to eat?

I would at least try to drink a smoothie or something frozen. When I had strep years ago, I ended up losing like 10 lbs (before banding) cuz all I could eat for like 10 days was popsicles. Strep throat hurts to eat anything that isn't frozen. Can you make or buy a smoothie? Good luck!

Treat the illness the same as you would if you weren't banded.

Thanks you guys for the advice, I was able to eat a popsicle very easy, I wanted to try some soup but dont want it to burn!
