    Water is a joke for relieving the burn. What you want is milk because it washes the oil off of your tongue. You can build up a tolerance for spicy food, you just have to keep eating it.

    What's even better than milk is a small bite of bread. You do build up a tolerance and LOVE for it. If my husband's forehead isn't sweating, it isn't hot enough!! LoL

Grin and bear it for 20 minutes!! I remember doing this with Thai food a month ago, thinking I could be handle 5 star ( out of 5). Big mistake. Not only was my throat closing up, but I could literally not taste the food. If you must have liquids, just take small amounts as not to create additional issues that come from being post op. maybe swish some ice Water in your mouth?

    Well, the no drinking with food is meant for flexibility... Docs don't want you oi fill up on Water and not on Protein. Additionally, they don't want the protein that you did eat to go through the sleeve faster.

    Think of hearty beef and veggie Soup or cold cereal- both of those have liquids and solids. So you CAN have liquids but make it a rule not to have it all of the time.... make it the exception.

    Just have a sip or two and leave it at that
