 I'm starting my liquid diet on Tuesday--yippee! Only two more weeks, then I'll be on the Losers' bench! 

Today, as a sort of "last meal", I had fried vegetable brown rice. It's something I don't eat often, but I wanted some carbs since I've been cutting back. It was good, but it wasn't overly exciting. I'm glad I didn't gorge myself as I would have in the past. I had just a cup, which was plenty. 

I'm so glad I didn't do a true "last meal" because I probably would have had a super rich meal, and paid for it later. 

I'm also finding food isn't as jazzy as I thought it was. Maybe it's getting ready for this new lifestyle, but for the past few months, I've tried things that I thought I would miss, only to find them not as appetizing or enjoyable. It's kind of sad in some respects, but I'm excited about making new things to fit into my new life.

That's awesome... way to go!  The liquids will be hard, but you'll get through it.  Sounds like you've already made cut backs so maybe won't be too bad for you.  Good luck!

 Thanks! I've been working with my dietician on making changes for months, in preparation for surgery. I'm glad it's paying off.
