Since it now takes so much longer to eat, I was wondering if any of you folks have figured out a way to keep your tiny meals warm until the end?

I'm considering buying a candle warmer and setting my dish upon it during mealtime.

Suggestions?

It's never been an issue that I've faced.

If its gone cold then I've been eating too long.

I have that problem too. Eating cold eggs is no fun.

haven't really had that issue with food but at work, the office is so cold that my hot tea was getting cold before i finished it. Mr coffee makes an eletric mug warmer. I think it was less than $10.

I know already I'm going to have the same problem. It's one of the reasons I always used to eat fast. I can not stand hot food that is even just luke warm (I microwave EVERYTHING even if it literally just came out of the oven), and cold food that is getting close to room temperature (I've been known to pour milk into Cereal by placing the bowl IN the fridge so the milk carton doesn't have to come out at all). It's part of my sensory disorder. Hopefully it's not as severe for you.

I've joked with hubby that I will have to eat my meals standing at the microwave and just reheat between each bite.

Kind of funny. But people have used these. Use a tiny glass pyrex bowl to set on the coffee warmer

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
