I use a timer, a small spoon/fork, and eat with my nondominant hand...

I had not thought about eating with my left hand! That's a great tip!

My surgeon suggested it at my last appointment and it's been a huge help in slowing down!

I am a fast eater as well, before my surgery I got a smart spoon and fork that help me then. After the surgery I forgot and ate to fast; all I got to say to that is, lesson learn the hard way.
