Learning to re-feed myself all over again is one of the most challenging things that comes along with this surgery.

Smaller bites, chewing more, how fast I eat are all things that I struggle with.

What's your challenge?

Definitely eating too fast is my challenge. I also need to exercise more. I'm only working out 2x per week.

Not knowing when I should stop eating and I feel hungry a lot and I'm only 3 weeks post surgery

I found that eating with a baby spoon and using small sauce bowls is very helpful. I'm 2 weeks out. Having a full sauce or condiment bowl gives me the visual that I have a full dish to eat from. Using the baby spoon ensures that I take smaller bites and eat slower. Sounds kind of silly I know but it has been helping me tremendously.

My Nut suggested this, I am 5 days till surgery, so I am not sure how helpful it will be, but I bought 1 oz and 3 oz sized bowls and small spoons. Glad to hear you feel it works

That's a very good idea thanks so much

I too am doing this eating from toddler dishes. It has helped me slow my eating down.

That's a good idea! I use a lil saucer...

I'm going to have too try smaller utensils, this sounds more feasible
