My wife needs gum for her drive home. It keeps her awake after a long night shift.  

1 day supply? 😂 I used to chew the ice cube gum when I work out, but have cut back. 

oh yes maybe a week! hahaha TUD- does that actually work?  

kenny why did you cut back? you make it sound like an unhealthy addiction.... haha 

Definitely a stress chewer here 🙋🏻‍♀️ You are not alone 😅 I always have a stash 😁 

I too love extra gum😆. Try some daily meditation and focus on breathing for stress. 

Jess chews gum at the gym. She also chews it when she’s nervous in social situations to keep from yawning 🥱 

willb when i was a kid i always swallowed my gum. not now. haha 🤷‍♀️ 

Great idea! Love it 

I chew a LOT of GUM! I like ice cubes.... I'll send a pic - maybe tomorrow! It's not about stress- more about NOT eating calories!!! 

I want one 

No, not unhealthy, just a choice. Chew away!!!!! 😂 

Watch that show My strange addiction 😳. Chewing gum is completely normal compared to anything on that show. 🤣 

When I was a teenager I chewed so much Dentyne gum my dentist could not believe how white my back teeth were! He was really impressed!! LOL 

I chew gum ANY time I have it in sight but my issue is I sometimes lose coordination and bite my tongue or inside of my mouth if I chew it too often. Sounds dumb but I can’t do anything and chew gum at the same time 😂😂 

moko i did that running last week. didnt bring a fresh piece so my mouth got dry. had a big sore for a few days because you cant just bite the same spot once.... ow! haha 

nana-thats a great idea!!!! i might need to get the whitening kind 

kenny 🤣🤣 very true. its gum, not a couch or insulation im eating! lol 

swayne- what kind, and chewed or unchewed? lmao 

Same I buy my gum in bulk as well!! I love gum but I also found on this journey if I start to feel hungry I'll chew gum and drink some water and it holds me over so that's definitely a bonus!
