Help! I need to slow down!
Nope...i still eat and drink too fast. But, getting the foamies a few times early out made me slow down a little bit. I definitely think twice before continuing to eat too fast - i dont want to risk the foamies!!

At my seminar they said to buy a timer and set it for 2 min between each bite. Not sure if it works...I'm still pre-op but I'm guessing it will help some.

I use chop sticks. It not only slows me down but helps me in taking smaller bites.

I literally eat like a toddler! LOL, I seriously cut anything I have up into teeny tiny pieces and eat one piece at a time. If its like cottage cheese or something I use a spoon for, I found that if I set a timer and give myself a household chore to do while eating helps. Usually fold laundry...take a little bite, fold something, and this contiues.... good luck
What types of foods are you eating right now? If you are still on softs.....ehh that is probably why. Once you start eating dense solid protein.....you just won't be able to do it.
At eight months now.....I KNOW IT if I don't chew well enough....almost immediately. My body doesn't give me a choice anymore....I'm gonna chew and the food needs to be moist.
The other tips here should help with softer foods.....eat with baby spoons, smaller plates/bowls, don't eat distracted (tv, computer, etc).
