Hi Chris,

Well, in the beginning water is all I could stand.

As time went on I had milk, Bigelow Green tea with honey (warm) I still can not have things to hot. Coffee but with a flavored creamer. Gatorade, and juices came later.

What I really enjoyed after I was 6 months was fudge cycles. They were great. I got the sugarless kind. They felt great on my throat and added liquids to my daily intake.

The green tea is good also for antioxidants.

I am just now able to have a drink or two now and then. I can have a beer or two, or a mixed drink if it is milk based. Other wise it will sting ! I may have a White Russian, Smith & Kearns, Smith & Wesson, Bailey's with extra cream. All of these drinks are made with a milk base.

At 4 months I did a lot of oat meal to eat because it was easy to swallow. It made its own saliva. Ha ha!!

Take care,
Diane
