Can't Eat Sitting Down?

Has anyone else experienced the same as I have? I find it sometimes difficult to eat while sitting down.

No - my pants are not too tight. LOL! But I get stuck sooner - and find when I stand, the food moved down, and I'm able to eat again. Hmmm... interesting! :-)

    I was advised by my doctor to only have meals while sitting at the table, and use good posture. So, what you have observed may be happening because of your posture.

    I would want to know why it is that you are having so many episodes of getting food stuck. You should be weighing out your portions with every meal. For me, I am to have 3 oz of lean Protein and 2 oz of a Fiber carb of my choice with every meal. That's all...

    You should definitely be able to sit while eating.
