Day 3: Swallowing Question

[Cobrargc 25]

OK, today I started day 3. One thing I've noticed is the way I am swallowing. I'm trying to find a way to swallow foods and liquids in a way that doesn't admit air along with the food. It doesn't take much are air to fill our new stomaches. The additional air when swallowing creates a lot of burbs. Has anyone found a knack to swallowing?

Other than the swallowing, everything is going great. I feel kind of an uncorfortable sensation sometimes when I eat or drink. I'm not sure if this is the fullness sensation I hear about or just a an uncomfortable feeling due to the healing.

I've decided that I am going to return to work on Monday. I can stand another day at home with nothing to do.

To prevent the air, try taking smaller drinks and letting it trickle down your throat instead of normal size drinks. Someone suggested using a spoon to drink with and said it really helped them with getting liquids in without air.

Also, that uncomfortable feeling is probably your "full signal" right now. Mine was shoulder pain at your stage and I had a good bit of needless pain because I didn't recognize it for a few days.

Good luck!!
