Kime-lou 648 Posted August 16, 2012 Carolina girl is right on. Eating to fast will get you everytime. If you have a difficult time with slowing down try putting you fork/spoon down between bites. I know they say do be distracted while you eat, but I fix my plate with my one cup and sit down with the hubs at night. I will take a bite, put down my fork and listen to him tell me about his day while I chew and chew and chew. Then another bite. I takes me about the same amount of time it takes him to eat, but he eats twice as much if not more than I do. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maddysgram 6,159 Posted August 16, 2012 The books I've read says to take bites no bigger than a pencil eraser. It should take 20-30 mins to eat a meal. 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maddysgram 6,159 Posted August 16, 2012 Planning on getting infant eating utensils after banding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lapbandster 496 Posted August 16, 2012 Great idea on the infant utensils (I guess i'll have to steal from my niece lol) and i'm really really gonna try to give myself at least 30 mins to eat. I think if there's no rush to eat then there wont be as many issues 2 ☠carolinagirl☠ and Maddysgram reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
