njgal 535 Posted October 24, 2017 Should I be eating standing? Especially at work? I always heard one should sit down but I’d be interested to hear what the latest on this was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GassyGurl 428 Posted October 24, 2017 Our nurse said standing helps the food go down better, even more so if you raise your arms. Might be weird for every meal, but she also says you burn more calories standing then sitting. So why not? It's my go to for when I feel full.But, if you're going to stand to eat, you should still do it at a table, so it seems like a mealtime vs walking around and aimlessly munching, where it's easy to lose focus.

MochaKelly 74 Posted October 25, 2017 I can't move suddenly when I eat. I have to let it settle down. I feel stressed and like vomiting when I eat, and it is only two or three bites! Sent from my XT1097 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
