    I follow her last comment. I drink before and after I eat. Early on after surgery, I craved Water or fluids with my meal but I got over it and now it's not necessary for me. Once in a while I might have a glass of wine with my meal and sip as she suggests.

    I believe that it's still a good idea for new patients to adhere from using the method Helen recommends. I think it takes time to learn how to eat and chew slowly. Patients who haven't learned this lesson could abuse the sip rule turning a regular band friendly meal into a meal of slider foods. They would not enjoy the effect the tool can give them thereby not seeing the scale go down. That's just my opinion of course, no scientific data to back it up.
