Eat slower. You set the interval and it chimes every time you should take a bite

My surgeon said chew 30 times. When I was first out of the hospital and started on semi-soft food I would forget to chew the 30 times and I would swallow and I knew that I would be getting sick and boy did I get sick quite a few times.... I learned real quick to chew, chew, chew and chew some more !!!

I am 5 weeks out and still trying to perfect the chewing thing. I was a fast eater so I am working really hard to slow down and chew, chew, chew. It is so hard.

I do chew everything to mush...I just do so very fast. Used the app set at 45 seconds this morning and it helped

I don't time it but I put my fork down between every bite and move my hands away. I just chew until it's soft and mushy, and I take pencil-tip eraser-sized bites.

Is it "eat slower pro" for 99 cents?
