So tired of cold food...

[Foxbins 625]

Don't get me wrong, I love my sleeve, but I haven't had an entire hot meal since January 12. I cook my Protein, put it on the plate, sit down, take a little bite, chew, chew, chew, put down the fork, wait a minute, take another bite, and repeat the process. By about bite 3 the food is cooling and by bite 6 it's cold. If I eat too fast I get the foamies so I eat slowly. I have tried warming in the microwave but that just seems to dry the food out and overcook it. I have tried to get used to cold meals like shrimp and chicken salad, but sometimes I want to eat something piping hot. I think that's why I enjoy my morning coffee so much, it's HOT.

Anyone else feel this way or have suggestions?

If you spinkle just a little Water on your food before you put in in the microwave it will be alot less dry. Hope this helps!

There is this child plate that has a section underneath to put hot Water to keep the food warm. The link under what to take to the hospital thread. on the second page

I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH YOU!!!

The child plate idea is good, I personally eat most of my stuff out of a coffee mug, and while I can eat fast enough now to not need it - I would imagine one of those coffee mug warmers would help keep it toasty.

I eat most of my food from baby bowls. I use the ones that you can put the hot Water in. It keeps everything warm for you, and helps control portion size.

I don't like my food cold either....we've always warmed our plates under hot Water or put them in the microwave before we put our food on them. That helps some....I do NOT eat as slowly as I did in the beginning. I finish first most of the time, but my food stays warm! Someone said to sprinkle with Water to reheat, that does help.
