Well I just finished an oh-so-healthy dinner with my mother, which consisted of chips and dip and double pepperoni pizza. Mmm. Over the last month I've tried to "get in" all of the bad foods that I will not be able to have once banded. I think I'm most sad about sushi. I might have to be a sashimi girl from now on. Tomorrow marks the two week date until my surgery. I don't officially meet with the dietician until Tuesday but I've committed to starting liquid tomorrow. If I find out that I can also have a small salad and/or chicken, then great. I also drank the last sweet tea in my fridge this morning :confused3: I'm a little bit worried about this one as I'm a sweet tea aholic. I'm throwing out the remaining caffiene tea bags and sugar that I have in the house. Tomorrow I will also start caffiene free...honestly, that's what I'm really bracing for. I've done some research over the past few days comparing Lap and Realize Bands. I think I'm going to go with the LapBand unless my surgeon tells me strongly otherwise for some reason. I weighed in a 278 this morning and am 5'11'' so here's looking for that scale to be starting a downward trend that will continue for quite a while. I have a 4 hour mandatory seminar tomorrow so hopefully it will be informative, the presenters good, and I won't recv a million work calls throughout. Till then!

I"m starting my liquids tomorrow also and being banded on July 20. There is a bit more than liquids on my diet, applesauce, grits, yogurt, but no salad or chicken. One thing I've learned though, it is different with every doc in every location. You are doing the right thing by eliminating caffiene and starting with straight liquids. Here's to your success.

Good luck to you. Speaking of being a sweet tea aholic I can relate.....do you know if there is a GOOD caffein free tea or green tea out there?
