Eat it slowly, chew loads, and if it doesn't agree with you, then you'll be seeing it again !

I know the feeling, i've always woofed my food like a dog, but have to now eat slow, i'm still experimenting too, some things go down and stay down ok, some it doesn't like they come back up, i also am consious i eat because i think i should eat at that time and not because i'm really hungry ! its a weird thing and will take a bit of getting used to !

its soo hard to eat slow when the hunger gets the better of you ! a little tip my dietician gave me is to put down my knife & fork or spoon between mouthfulls and NOT pick them up again till whats in your mouth is chewed and swallowed that slowed me down alot and really helped me from fast eating.
hope that helps

hi serenity how did your meal go?
chewing, eating slowly, not gulping, close the mouth so no added air gets in and never drink with a meal and i am sure you will be fine hun
