food gets cold while eating slow



Recommended Posts

I just had my second fill. I want to know how you can eat slow and still get hot foods. I am trying to eat slower, but my food gets real cold. I ate soft scrambled egg sub, this morning and by the time I had eaten (25 minutes) it was awfull and cold. Any suggestion>?

I've noticed that myself ... I'm thinking of looking into one of those baby food dishes that holds hot Water, like I had for my sons (now 17 and 13) when they were little.

:sneaky:What a great idea, I get so tired of eating cold meals...although I have gotten used to it!

I agree! I think that's how we lose weight the most. I can't finish mine if it's to cold..I make up for it some days..And why is it some days I can eat a whole lot more than other days..

ARGH I know. I hate really hot foods and always made my food just warm. Now I have to make it really hot so it stays warm by the time I'm done eating. It's highly annoying.

I like the idea of using one of the baby food dishes that hold hot Water. I started to look for one on the internet and so far can only find them in England. Anybody know where i can get one?

I got a baby dish online from Munchkin. I have to use boiling Water in it to get it warm enough to keep food warm. And I eat with a baby spoon and shrimp fork. My questions is - when do I get to eat like an adult again? LOL!

I have taken to a brief "nuke" sessions in the microwave in between. It just takes a while to eat, kind of unavoidable. I like the toddler heating plate idea.

Hi all

Wow!!! thats what I need a plate that keeps my food warm while I eat!! I am 3 wks post-op and my food is always cold when I done:mad:. I am one who is use to eating fast or on the run; so I need my food to stay warm!!! I am still learning to eat at a slow rate. I did think of the baby warming plate. But I like the one at the elderstore better. :tt2:

Working towards a better me!!!

      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.
