I had my tonsils out only 3 years ago. They have been begging me for years and I said **** no. I'm afraid of hospitals and I've never had a surgery. I went because I was losing a lot of sleep because of sleep apnea.
I was happy to get this procedure done for one reason and one reason alone. I went into the surgery weight 265. After my healing for 2 weeks. I came out at about 235. During the last week of me healing I ran into an old friend from high school I had a thing for. Ever since then we've been together.
The healing process however, i did not enjoy... i can't lie. Everytime I swalled it felt like sandpaper in the back of my throat. Jesus. Please stay away from dairy, its regularly a friend but not in this case.
I really ate a lot of fruit popsicles and things of that nature. After a while the cold will help to numb your throat. Whatever you do, dont talk unless you need to, its worth it not to. I wish you luck
