LovinLife3 1 Posted March 3, 2012 i was told not to chew gum because of the air intake but i chew with my mouth close and as i stated before i have not had any problems. But there is some people who can eat bread and some who cant so try chewing a gum and see if it works for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cindy C 150 Posted March 4, 2012 The problem with gum isn't the calories or the air so much the fact that if you accidentally swallow it it will most likely get stuck! 1 SGP78 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
