I am very excited to start my liquid diet today. I am thankful it is only for 3 days though. I really feel for those that must do it for 2 weeks. That has to be hard.

I had my "last supper" Saturday night with my family. We went to an all you can eat family style dinner and I ate like a piggy of course. And yesterday I said goodbye to McDonald's with 2 double cheeseburgers and a large fry. :biggrin:

Now that I hav ended my love affair with food, I am happy to say we have parted ways amicably and I am ready for my New Life where food will no longer be in control of me. I am so looking forward to being the thin person that I always feel like I am on the inside. I am ready to show the world!

I stopped in the Smoothie King by my house this morning and am so glad that I did. For any of you that may have a Smoothie King in your area, I highly recommend it! They have the Gladiator Shake that has 45 grams of protein per shake! And they taste good as well. They can either make a shake for you in the store, or they also sell the powder in individual packets as well as a big tub. They also have another kind of pre-made shake that they sell that I haven't tried yet but that one has 32 grams of protein per serving. The place really isn't that expensive compared to what the protein shakes I have priced already cost. Plus, these shakes are much higher in protein than the others with little to no sugar. I think Smoothie King is going to be a lifesaver for me! :eek:

I weighed msyelf this morning knowing this is my high point. Since I am starting the liquid diet today and getting banded, I know it will all be downhill from here! I am so excited! I am going to start losing weight that I know finally will be the last time I ever have to lose that same weight again!

WOO HOO! I am ready, ready ready! And VERY excited! Good luck to all you other fellow bandsters out there and big ups to everyone else getting banded this week!

Good luck to you Thursday, I'm getting banded in the morning.

Good luck! I found out mine will be 3 day liquid diet also, I'm so happy not to have to do 2 weeks.

Three days is fantastic! I was only allowed 3 Bariatric Advantage shakes a day for 2 weeks.

Good luck with your surgery!
