lamvmomof4 0 Posted July 29, 2008 I was thinking last night about how I will eat supper or any other meal with my family. I have 4 kids and they usually keep me pretty busy at supper with cut this and there stories and what not. I was thinking after I have the surgery it is going to be pretty hard to concentrate on chewing with all the kids and there needs so I am thinking I will have to eat before or after and just sit with them while they all eat. Is it weird that I am finding this as to be my hard struggle? What do you guys think about eating with the family? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Momto5 0 Posted July 29, 2008 I think it is a good concern. I have 5 myself. I try to cut their meat before I bring it to the table. my oldest 2 (9 & 6) are pretty good at running to the kitchen for whatever is needed. But I may start off like you are saying. I know eventually it will all settle in, but to start off it might be good to eat meals w/o the distraction! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roheryn 0 Posted July 30, 2008 Another thing I was thinking of trying is to use a little spoon to eat for a while so I don't take too much into my mouth and hence into my belly! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lanakila 1 Posted July 30, 2008 You could treat yourself to a baby silver spoon, or maybe one of those souvenir sugar spoons. Then you could make up a fun story about why you are using it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
