Know it's a NO NO, but I don't really use condiments on things I eat so even a mini sandwich would be dry, like lunch meat, a sandwich thin, and lettuce only.

Do any of you take small sips if you eat something dry? I already have a drier mouth due to Zoloft, so I'm trying to figure out eating without Water lol

I take the generic of Zoloft and have not noticed any issues with dry mouth due to it. My sleeve was August 6th and I have not tried eating any breads yet, but I do eat small pieces of roasted chicken. When I do eat something that tends to dry, I just chew on it longer and try to work up more saliva. Smaller bites make a difference too, you don't have as much to try and moisten up.

Yeah it's one side effect I get from it...and heaven forbid I try and get off the stuff! If I even miss a few days I can feel it..headache, brain zaps (at least that's what people on forums call it), nausea ugh I want to get off it someday

I feel if I always waited the 15 min before or the 45 after EVERYTIME I ate like they suggest I would never drink. I don't think it's harmful. I just think they don't want you to fill up on liquids plus I think it can push certain foods through your pouch faster. So if you do take "sips" just watch how much you are eating. I have not sipped and ate yet but I usually only wait 5-10 minutes after I eat to start drinking again.
