Soft Stop Signals?
Hey all of my bandster friends, I need some advice and info. I am 2mos out from surgery and have 3.5ccs in a 10cc band. I am not at optimal restriction yet, but do experience some restriction. I am interestered in learning what your soft stop signal is ... what tells you it is time to stop eating? I am currently measuring my food and eat very slowly. I don't have any soft stop signals, that I recognize yet. Just curious what everyone else experiences when it is time to stop eating.
Thanks a bunch,
Kim

I sometimes get a little hiccup or a little burp.
I also sometimes get a little runny nose
Mostly, I just stop eating when my pre-weighed/pre-measured food is gone.
I flush my mouth out with water -- usually brush/gargle, and move on with my day.
(When I eat out, I segregate the amount of food that I am going to try to eat from the rest.
I usually put 'my portion' on the bread plate or ask for a separate plate.
Lots of times, as they are putting my food in front of me, I ask for a to-go box and I put 2/3 of the meal into it.)
