Try changing the temperature of what you are drinking. Particularly if you are focused on cold drinks -- many people find warm drinks easier. Sip on some warm broth, low calorie hot cocoa, or tea. Good luck!

I would have pains when I would drink anything the first two weeks or so. It eventually went away now it's only uncomfortable if I take too big of a drink but only for a second
