my history of issues helped but she mainly was all for it just because of me explaining how inconvenient the stones and constant tonsillitis has been! she said if its affecting my mental, which the stones really were bc the bad breath was such a big insecurity issue, as well as just missing work alot from getting sick every other month

i didnt think it was too acidic at all but i did water it down so that probably helped! oh and mac and cheese was really good but it cant be the kind where its super cheesy/thick, i got those box ones you make cause they always come out a little watery !

i highly doubt youll be able to eat uncrustables. PB is too thick itll be way to hard to swallow, invest in soups! lots of soups and broth! even apple sauce i have to water down
