Bite per minute? Seems impossible, any advice?



Recommended Posts

I am having the hardest time trying to take 20 minutes to eat a meal, chewing thoroughly and eating one bite per minute.

If I do other things while eating I can do it, but if I were to sit down to eat (almost impossible sometimes with a 10 month old lol) I get bored trying to wait that long and it's hard not to eat fast like I am used to :-/

I almost have to stand while eating and take bites in between doing other things.

My food gets cold in the meantime but I guess I can deal with that.

I find it very hard to take 20-30 minutes to eat as well. That's probably the main thing I do wrong. I honestly just try to do my best. I try to remember to put my fork down with each bite. Not much help I know but it's the area I still struggle with as well.

Good luck!

I have this eat slowly app, which helps me know when I can take the next bite and how far through my meal I should be

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
