I got stuck again

Well after the shrimp episode I said I would never do that again. So yesterday I had about a cup and a 1/2 of cottage cheese for lunch. I didn't drink before so I thought I would be ok. Eating slowly and chewing well. That didn't work, by the time the food caught up to me I was so full I thought I was going to bust open. My jeans just put more pressure on my stomach so I pulled them up to my boobs. Thank God I wear the elastic waist old lady jeans. So I figure today I will have about 3/4 a cup of cottage cheese and 4 pieces of pineapple in it and that should be good. I just need to take 30 min to eat so the food can get to my stomach and signal that I am full before it is too late. So much for learning the hard way.

    I am basically at the same point.

    I don't think of it as the hard way. It is adventurous, not hard.

    it's a trip, isn't it! LOL....one day something goes down well, and then next day you can't tolerate one bite!

    My best advise is to chew well, put your fork down between bites, and only put more food in your mouth when that last bite has been swallowed....

    I made chili the other night, and made extra so that I could pack lunches for the week....the chili was fine on Monday, Tuesday it was choking after two bites, and tonight, it was ok.

    Best of luck...take is slow....and keep sharing!
