Eat meals without taking 30-45 mins? Are we always gonna have to wait 2 minutes between each bite?

I was able to eat in a normal amount of time after about 4 months. However, my new normal is so much slower than before surgery. Eating fast hurts and causes problems. I've never waited 2 mins between bites though. I chew carefully and put the fork down between bites, and all is good.

Great question! I was curious about that myself because I prefer hot food, hot, not luke warm or cold!

That's great to know! I get sick of reheating 2 or 3 times. Also, I can't sit with my family. I feel pressured to eat fast so I eat later.
