Did everybody dive into the pre-op liquid diet cold turkey or did you have a pre-diet before the pre-op diet? All of the talk and thoughts on the lapband process must have soaked in because I started chewing the bajesus out of my food the other day. It kind of kicked off a pre-diet before I start my liquid diet on the 13th. All of my meals since have been about 25-50% of what I normally eat in each meal and have made me feel stuffed. Tonight I had 1 piece of pizza and some salad and was actually full whereas I used to eat around 4 in a sitting. What adjustments did you guys make prior to starting your liquid diet?

When I went back for my seminar and education glass back in Sept. 09 they told us to start making healthier choices. I'm not going to lie to you, I did not. I started my liquid diet cold turkey and it was HARD. I would recommend anyone to start making wiser choices as soon as they decide to go for surgery just so it's not so stressful when you have to go on your liquid diet.
