Three weeks and counting!! Have you changed your eating habits to adopt the WLS rules yet? You still have a week before your 2-week liquid diet (if you're doing that one). Any changes now, even just following the 30-30 rule, will make things easier for you on the other side.
Welcome to the family!

Oh yes..i have changed my eating habits ALOT this year. Being VERY conscience of food labels, etc. Drinking lots of water. As for the 2 week liquid diet, it is not required by my surgeon. Just a day before is all..or at least at this point. I will see the surgeon the week before my surgery, so he may have more instructions at that point. Not sure what you are referring to as 30-30. What exactly is that? I have been reading alot online and have not come across that anywhere.

Nothing to drink 30 minutes before, during or 30 minutes after your meal. It takes a while to get used to.
