Which was the hardest

[dramagirl28 22]

Eating slowly is the hardest part for me, but only because I don't always have 30 minutes to an hour to eat! I take an hour long lunch break at work and I love it because that's the pace I feel comfortable eating. It's often difficult when you're on the run because you can't just grab something and scarf it down in the car anymore. So, it's not that eating slowly is hard to make myself do (it was at first, but I've gotten used to it), but that you have to really devote time to your meals.

The other thing that annoys me is that I always have leftovers, whether I cook or go out, so I eat the same thing four or five times a week. I'm single, no kids, so I can eat on a restaurant meal until I have to dump it because it's gone bad.

I have to concur with the popular opinion that not drinking while eating is the hardest thing. I tend to spice things up a bit and sometimes, you just need to cool off your mouth. My solution is ice chips. I take a chip of ice and let it melt in my mouth which cools it off without adding too much Water to my meal.

I have a hard time finishing my lunch during my hour-long lunch break. I finally switched to Protein shakes because I just can't eat that fast and still allow time for me to brush my teeth. I was sleeved August 9, and in October, I got braces. I teach, so I am very worried about keeping my teeth clean of food.

I gave up on the not drinking within a half hour before and after the meal. It wasn't one of my doctor's instructions, so I haven't followed it. When I'm actually eating, I only take a sip once in a while. For instance, today my chicken was very spicy and a sip was required.

I thought the not drinking would be hard for me, but for me it hasn't been that bad.

I always forget to slow down and chew.

The hardest for me has been slowing down. The not drinking when I eat was a little tough at first but not bad really. Now I dont even think about it. If I eat spicy food, I might take a small sip just because I have to for the heat...lol. I have noticed that I get faux hunger pains when i am stressed, emotional and just this week I noticed I was bored and snacking too much because of it. I was eating good Protein Snacks but I had to keep telling myself that I am not really hungry, Im bored so I would close the snack drawer and not eat anything. this process has really shed light on why I got so fat in the first place. Eating for all the wrong reasons.
