My absolute favorite kitchen gadget post-op is....

my kitchen scissors! I use them all the time.

I ham 10 weeks out and released to eat anything but I still have a lot of restriction swallowing. I know I need to take smaller bites and eat slower than slow, but I am also fairly impatient.

I use my scissors to cut up everything into fingernail clipping sized bites (gross analogy, I know). It only takes minutes to cut through anything; chicken, beef, lunch meat, salad, cole slaw, fruit...

I've bought myself a few pairs so if one set is in the dishwasher, I have back ups.

I used kitchen scissors when my kids were toddlers eating finger foods, I don't know why it took me so long to remember using them post op!

I almost wish I had that problem! I don't have enough restriction so I can woof down any and all types of food at the same bite size pre op. I can also down a whole bottle Water.

The scissor idea was very smart!

I love the scissor idea! Thanks for sharing! I can't live without my Magic Bullet for making Protein drinks! That's my special kitchen gadget!

My kitchen scale is my best kitchen buddy: I weigh most foods even now, over two years out. It ensures I'm getting enough Protein and stops portion creep.
