I have heard differing opinions about how effective the weighted eating utensils work. It all depends on the individual. I once had home health to serve me for about 4-6 weeks. They came into my home to evaluate the environment for safety and suggest things that might assist in daily required functions. One of those things suggested was eating utensils. They suggested non-breakable dishes, and use them on a tray with a non-skid surface. You can buy such items from special companies, or simply use the waffle backing you put under rugs to line a tray, which holds everything nicely in place. In lieu of weighted spoons or forks, they said to use the foam hair-rollers (minus the inner clip part) or the rubber used for pipe insulation to slip around the handles of eating utensils. That really worked better than the weighted items for me, and the cost was minimal. It's worth a try!
