Huh?!

I don't think chickens would make a good cutlery set.

Gotta love mobile devices and their auto correct.

Gerber is pretty high end. I have a Gerber cleaver ... can't find it after my last move, though. I think the most important aspect of a *good* knife is how it feels in your hand. Is it balanced well?

As far as utencils, which I'm guessing you're referring to since you mention taking smaller bites, just get a good steak knife. Do you have a honing blade?

Damn, I didn't even get the Gerber right on this.... I thought sure it was a question dealing with baby food not knives!!

I think this should read:

Someone mentioned I should buy myself children's cutlery set like the Gerber brand to help take smaller bites. Has anyone done this?

Yes. I have also heard of this and plan to do so. I found one of my kids baby spoons in the drawer and have been using that to eat yogurt in prep for surgery. Will be getting baby cutlery in the next few weeks.

I picked up some smaller spoons and forks in the appetizer section of a kitchen store. I love them!! Use them every day. My NUT had me do this pre op so I could get used to it. It sure makes you eat slower.

Love them!

I also got some p,.astic baby spoons at the dollar store. They are perfect for yogurt!

I used a teaspoon and didn't bother to buy new cutlery. I did buy a small rice bowl and side plate to use to manage portions though.

I bought a little set called Toddler Toss and Take off of Amazon they come in a little case and I LOVE them! They slow me down, allow me to savor my food longer and keep my bites small to protect my sleeve! One of the best purchases I made! :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
