My doctor recommended it but I used a regular tea spoon. I couldn't see eating with a baby spoon.. Congrats on the weight loss.. Welcome to the loser bench

Since I ate everything with a tablespoon pre-op, switching to a teaspoon is using s smaller spoon. I did get some appetizer spoons rather than toddler spoons. I still use one of those to eat things like yogurt. It really does help me to take smaller bites. If you use a teaspoon then try using just the tip rather than a full teaspoon full.

It takes practice but I think that taking smaller bites, eating slowly, and chewing thoroughly really makes a difference.

The benefit is that I get to really taste my food.
