I was one of the lucky ones. I could drink normally after about two weeks. Some people have to sip a lot longer. I almost six months out and haven't had any issues drinking or eating. I eat healthy and I made goal at about 5 months.

Wondering the same. I guess it's different with everyone. I still sip and I'm about 3 weeks out. I hope I can take bigger sips by summer time :) hot utah summers need hydration!

I'm having a super difficult time with the sipping. I'm not getting in enough liquids I don't think. I'm hoping that over time I can drink normally again because this is quite difficult.

What I do to help this, because this is hard for me to, is bringing my water or drink with me everywhere and just put it where I can constantly see it. It reminds me I need to sip. I also have a husband that reminds me all the time as well but not everyone does lol I hope this helps. Just put it where it will bug you so you see it and remind yourself to sip.

I'm 7 weeks out and started using a straw at about 5 weeks. No problems and am able to get tons more water in daily. No more sipping for me!

I'm 11 days out and I don't need to slow sip anymore. I don't gulp or guzzle. But I can take repeated swallows of water with no issue. Can't wait to start using straws again!
