    cgmc reacted to helen098 in Are You Using A Timer To Stop Between Bites?   
    About 2 weeks ago I went to see the PA and was scheduled for a fill but I told them how I was throwing up all the time, they were happy with my weight loss and he asked if I was stopping for 15 to 3 seconds between bites and putting the fork/spoon down…well I could have smacked my forehead how could I have forgotten this very important step
    So feeling kind of stupid I left and bought the $5 30 second timer and have been using it ever since
    Even went back and bought another so I have one at home and one at work
    15 – 30 seconds between bites is soooooo long but it feels so much better
    No choking, throwing up . no feeling like you are chiking because it wont go up or down
    I am so happy with my timer…but now I think other people are eating like pigs

    Hi Folks. If anyone approaches the point when a panniculectomy (apron) is going to be done, please be sure to contact local burn centers to possibly donate! I have worked with WLS patients for several years and hear that is a need. Sometimes if insurance won't pay, I have heard that burn centers might help or advise.
    Thanks,
