It's a soft stop for some.

I get them really bad - usually on the first bite or two and it's not always from not chewing or eating too fast as I've gotten them on mushies too.

I've never PB'ed but I'm sure I'd rather have hiccups then that. The hiccups are a sure sign to me to remember to slow down and after a few minutes I resume eating and everything is fine.

The only thing is if you're in a restruant and they get really loud it can be embarrassing. I guess I shouldn't care but people look at me like I need assistance like Im choking or something.

I usually get a single hiccup when I have had just enough to eat. It is like a sign to stop eating for me. I have ignored it before and kept eating and been sorry cause then I developed a PB (painful and not any fun). I don't get hiccups every time, just occasionally.

I get the hiccups if I eat too fast or sometimes when I've had enough to eat. I don't get them every time, but just once in a while. It's kind of my cue to stop eating and listen to the signals my body is sending. For example, if I get them early in my meal, I was probably eating too fast. If I get them later in my meal, it's time to stop, period, end of story.

Another "soft stop" for me is that my nose will run. If my nose starts running, it's time to stop and think "have I had enough to eat?" "am I satisfied?" "am I still hungry?".

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
