I am trying to learn how to sip!

Yes, that is what I said! I am trying to learn how to sip, but I am confused because I always thought I did sip. In fact, I have finally at age 42 convinced my mom that its okay that it takes me longer than 20 minutes to finish a glass of water. One of the rules for my new little pouch of a stomach is no gulping. It causes discomfort and the air needs to get out ... yes, burping. I hate burping! I am trying to learn a better way, but so far its a struggle. I need a sipping coach!
