You learn this and you hear this more than once.... EAT SLOWLY...chew 20-30 times...take tiny bites....it should take you 20-30 mins to eat your (tiny) meal!!!
After vomiting after/during almost every meal (cuz I eat fast and dont pay attention to the time--even though I was taking small bites), I was reminded of these tips at a post-op class yesterday... So today I made a conscious effort to time myself for 20 mins during my meals... VOILA... I can eat without getting sick... Ugh, if only I paid attention to this sooner, instead of week 3, I wouldn't have gotten sick so many times and gotten so much "stuck"... It was miserable.
Don't forget this tip...it will mean the difference between a nice comfortable meal and a trip to the bathroom...
