I'm also a recovering DP addict. I would drink anywhere from 1-2 2 liters a DAY! I stopped cold turkey the day before surgery. I have read about bandsters that can still enjoy soda, but not me.
One drink was all it took for me to PB violently out my nose and burn my chest. I'm actually glad I had that reaction to the carbonation because if I didn't I'd be back on that wagon.
It gets easier. I supplement my caffiene addiction with a cup of coffee in the morning and a ice tea or something in the afternoon.

I would have started NOT drinking with meals. This is one of the hardest things for me post-op still.
Test out Protein powders beforehand. You do NOT want to be a week post-op (starving) and HATE your shake.
try Vitalady.com to get samples, that's what I did.
Also, start making Protein rich recipes before surgery so they are already staples in your menu and easy to make and enjoy.

1)When I don't drink with or after meals I see a loss that week.
2)Not eating after dinner is over, no matter how hungry I think I am.
3)Blogging. Being able to put my feelings out there and get support means so much to me. (my blog link is in my sig)
