Starting Liquid Diet Tomorrow....

[Karlzmom 1]

Not really sure how I feel....resigned? Certainly not thrilled...Had a passing thought about how it was my "last meal" and dinner and almost cried at the thought it was leftovers....but then it somehow seems to be perfectly in keeping with the notion that my current lifestyle is not something I should miss going forward....I don't know....anyway...just wanted to share.

Haha I feel your confusion! I ate leftovers before work tonight and thought I should've had a 'last supper' at my fav restaurant or something more grand than half a cold burrito! I guess that's just the addict in all of us craving one last fix, so to speak. I can honestly say I probably will miss my comfort foods at first but the benefits from this wls will far outweigh & provide much more comfort than any food. My diet starts today as well so here's to a fresh start! Good luck!

Hi, KarlzMom and Sashay! Don't worry about giving up your favorite foods -- you are still going to be able to eat pretty much everything you do now when you are banded -- you'll just eat a lot LESS of it and feel satisfied!

That was really scary to me when I was doing my last meals and liquid diet, but it actually turned out to be just fine. And. . . I hit my goal today! WOO-HOOO!!!! Cut to a year or so from now, and you will both be posting the same thing!

Best wishes for your success,

Catherine
