Whoa.... I'm having pain after eating to fast.

I swear I feel so normal like I could eat like I used to (fast)

But noooooo I'm definitely not!

This has happened twice to me - where I ate to big of bites and too fast.

Any tricks to slow me down ?

Most of the time I'm fine but when I rush...... it's BAD NEWS

Count your chewing for 20 times and put the fork down in between bites.

Thank you [emoji4]

It's so hard, I know. I feel like I need to lie down after most meals. My nutritionist recommended taking a forkful or spoonful and then placing the utensil down until done chewing. Or every bite if not using utensils. Chew until applesauce consistency (can be gross at times) and wait a few seconds after last swallow to take another bite. Also do not drink anything for 15 min (nutritionist said 30min) before or after which is SUPER hard because I always drank and ate together. It's huge tho for pain after eating. Just don't drink. I just tell my phone to alarm in 15 min after I'm done eating, then I can drink.

Eat with a baby spoon and fork.It will slow you down.Put your utensils down after every bite.This helped me

Thank you so everyone:)

I bought some appetizer silverware at Crate & Barrel which is helping with smaller portion sizes, and they look nice.
