This is a psychological bad habit because it forms into a habit. In the beginning your fully aware of what your doinhg because the point is not to swallow anything that is not liquid. Later down the line due to the number of times your body has done this same action is because a unconscious habit that you will soon no longer be aware of until someone calls you out on it. For now this may JUST be done with the fruits, but later it will be with actual foods you need to sustain your body's everyday active. Plus you psychological train your body to to swallow solids which is a bad thing.
Since we are just babies retraining out bodies how to eat AFTER the surgery, this is a habit you would not want to take with 7-8 months down the line.
Jus my opinion

I had a craving for McDonald's chicken nuggets. So i ordered a 4 piece no sauce, chewed it and spit it out. It didn't taste as great as I remembered so I ended up giving the rest to my dogs. My recommendation...Chew & Spit!

Hey DD ... I know the feeling! I snuck a few of my daughter's goldfish.. had about 10 of them.. and I swear on the 10th one - I actually Heard MY stomach gurgle - and it was like slow motion.... As I put the last one in my mouth, the others were making their way back up! Girl, I had the shakes, the sweats... I was in the bathroom, thinking I don't know whether to Sh*t or go blind!!! I mean I was in the bed for 30 minutes thinking.. did goldfish really just take me out????? well, I may end up extending my "liquid" phase even longer because the thought of something non-liquid gives me the willies!
BTW, weighed myself today, and I'm down exactly 16 pounds since 3/9.. woo hoo!
