Hey Danni, sorry to hear that. The only thing I can suggest is to stop each time before you eat and say to yourself, "Ok, I need to eat slowly". Perhaps just trying to make a conscious effort before each time you each will help. Take the moment to reflect on what eating fast has caused in the past. Hope that helps!! I got sick that one time from not chewing well e nough, or eating too fast and I know I don't want to go through that again! Good luck!

I use an egg timer when I start eating too fast. During the pureed stage I ate chicken salad too fast and thought I was gonna die!! lol room spinning, sweats, felt like I was going to pass out, took 2 cold showers... It made me learn a little that I have to eat slow, but there are times you just go back to the way you always were and eat fast without thinking, when I start feeling that way thats when I break out the egg timer for a few days and watch it when I'm eating it helps me slow down... ps- i posted a question for you on the march board

Eat everything with a fork and put your fork down in between each bite. It seems like a pain, but it helps. Kim
