Do NOT do what I did today!

Great tips! I am trying to break myself of this habit right now, and it is just so hard.

Me, too! I started eating fast in nursing school because we only had like 10 minutes to scarf our lunch down every day and it just stuck with me. We can be at a family reunion or something and I finish before most sit down to eat. It's a habit I need to fix NOW. Eating fast is so painful with the sleeve.

I ate too fast yesterday at lunch and supper and was horribly sick afterward. The pain in my chest and hot flashes was unbearable. After about an hour it went away. It sure is a learning pattern that I have not perfected yet. My head says EAT. My stomach says No Way!

Whoa no, you will not want to eat like that with the sleeve! Fortunately for me I learned to slow it down when I was banded, I'd be sliming and PB'ing at every meal. It hurts and its gross!!

I haven't really had any problems with my sleeve, thank goodness. I get pains sometimes but I stop immediately. It does teach you to follow the rules.
