Eating too fast

[Sprinkles1 358]

Ugh, I have such a problem with eating too fast. I don't experience any pain with eating quickly, but I'm scared cause I know it can! Tips to slow down?

It doesn’t make you sick ? I will throw up if I eat too fast.

Only tips I really have are the usual ones - use small plates and cutlery, cut your food into small pieces and try to chew at least 20-25 times, put your fork down in between bites.

Yeah, surprisingly it doesn't make me sick. Neither does drinking quickly. I try not to test it... just in case but there has been times were I forgot.

If I eat too fast, I usually feel like I've got a lump or something sitting too heavy on my stomach. I did that with some Protein Pasta last night. I had 3 bites and then I couldn't eat any more. I felt horrible.

I JUST had this problem. Waited too long to eat so I scarfed down some chick fil a grilled nuggets and had a ton of discomfort.

I totally agree with what someone else said, cutting up your food really helps. When I meal prep, I cut things up real small because I know once I’m hungry, I don’t think about those things... I just want to eat! lol

Surprisingly, BABY SPOONS AND FORKS...
I was sleeved on March 8th, 2018. I also had a major problem with eating too much too quick. Getting baby spoons, forks, cups and plates not only slow you down it also limits the amount you put on your plate

Maybe practice mindfulness eating.

That's something I'm trying to learn while I'm in the presurg minor leagues before the Big Call up to the Majors. Not easy when you've been a mindless bolted most of your life.😙

That has worked for me too. I started with the spoons when I was in the purée stage. I now use the rest. It does help limit the how much I eat in a bite and how much I eat overall.

The Baritastic App has a great bite timer that works well.

Baritastic. www.baritastic.com/

My surgeon's office recommended it and I downloaded it right away. I felt like it was a little invasive and prefer My Fitness Pal for logging what I eat and my weight loss progress. Besides, My Fitness Pal is compatible with my Garmin fitness tracker.
