Not drinking with meals

I am scheduled Feb. 3rd to be banded. I have always been a big drinker with my meals. How difficult was it for you to not drink with your meals? Was it had to get use to?

    It has been fairly easy for me as well. Now, the waitstaff at restaurants have a hard time with it! They really get stressed out when you don't order a drink! :) I have to tell them repeatedly that "No,thank you. I am SURE I would not like a drinK"! If you can get past them, you'll have it made!

    Same as JuneAct2. I usually give in and let them bring me an ice water just so they shut up. I quickly adjusted to the no drinking while eating. After I eat I make sure I leave the table and start cleaning the kitchen or go do some laundry.
