ImCubamB 6 Posted January 20, 2017 I'm 18 days pre op is it just me or am I the only one who needs to work on chewing up my food . I feel like I eat too fast. My doctor recommended chewing every thing 30x . Any thing that's not liquid I feel it literally hit my stomach.

Pazza 199 Posted January 20, 2017 Welcome to the club! I'm 9 months out and still have to chew like that. I think it is a long term thing. Congrats on your surgery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

facebro29 272 Posted January 20, 2017 I've learned when I eat to fast either I have hiccups or bad heart burn. I always have to remind myself to slow down. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
