time between bites

[4sweeties 63]

When I put my fork down, someone will ask me if I'm done eating. LOL maybe I'm putting it down dramatically, I'm not sure. Maybe I have an "I'm done " look, but I draw attention to myself. I don't care too much, I just say, I'm just taking a break. Or I hold my Water glass (I don't drink) and I fid I'm not asked if I'm done.

If I am eating a new food, or a food I'm scared to get stuck on, and I happen to see a digital clock, I'll wait a minute before the next bite. But it's really to get me into new habits until I naturally wait that amount of time.

I am a clock watcher when I eat. I eat one bite per minute timing after I swallow. I put my fork or spoon down so I'm not tempted to take a bite too early. I have had people at restaurants think I was finished eating because I wasn't holding my fork.

Elcee you are right! I had my first experience today getting into trouble eating too fast. It was a bad situation little time to eat so I at my food bite after bite no waiting..... boy did that hurt! I thought things would get worse because I wasn't swallowing my saliva but I made myself calm down and I could feel every piece go through. It all worked out and no emergency deflation. Won't do it again was a lesson learned
