Ugh when am I gonna learn to eat slow

[Countrygrrl 450]

Well good news I've hit the 280s. I am starting back on weight loss!!

I'm also a fast eater! But I love what the sleeve has helped me achieve and I love that I have to eat quite a bit more slowly. I just cut my Proteins very small (sometimes while cooking) and I tend to use more liquids or sauces to keep everything wet so it doesn't get stuck in the sleeve and fill me up too fast.

It's a learning process...most of us are trying to undo a lifetime of bad habits and it does take time.

I don't think I will ever be the 1/2-hour eater that my surgeon/nutritionist aim for, but I'm definitely working towards a happy medium!

Best of luck to everyone!

I left my plate in the kitchen today and took a bite and walked around.

@AlwaysVegas-

I was just saying that tonight at the supper table " and I'm suppose to make this last a half an hour???"

YA, I'll try. It's just so hard. We have a 2 and 3 yr old and when there done eating, there done eating lol

No time for MummA to sit around and eat for 30 min

I am 9 months out and still eat too fast at times. Then I end up hurting like crazy! Old habits die hard.

I am awaiting " Mother Nature" to come in a few days and I am craving anything and everything! I've literally stuffed myself 2 times today, like now, I just got home from work and I feel like I could burst! I ate chicken salad and 4 saltines. But about 45 min before I left work I drank a Premier Protein drink. I know better, but my mind is unfortunately over ruling my stomach today--- I feel like I've began failing. I'm sure in a day or two ill be fine. It's just Mother Nature!!! She's a rascal

So far, I've been pretty lucky in that some fast eating hadn't caused me too much discomfort, though a few times it has.

Almost 120 days out now, still learning some stuff along the way.
