The beginning of my journey

Hello All,

I started my Lap Band journey on Monday of this week. (July 13,2009). I am so excited about how my life will improve. I am starting to feel better and better each day that passes. I am on day 4 of the liquid diet and not really bothered by it too much. I am sure by the end of the week I will be wanting something with texture. I have been sticking to water, chicken broth, apple juice and boost. Any other options for liquid diet? I am excited about being a bandster!

Congrats....

Here are some other suggestions

Sugar Free Popcycles; Sugar Free Jello; Crystal Light Drinks (at least it give you some flavor) decaf coffee, decaf tea;

Thanks for the suggestions. I forgot to mention that I am allergic to artificial sweeteners. That creates a little bit of a challenge. I have been trying to shy away from sugar based liquids as much as I can.
