Liquid Question and Psyc

So the big thing that is being pushed to me is no drinking ten minutes before eating and up to a half hour after eating because the liquid allows food to wash down.  Now does milk count as well?  If I am not mistake, milk will turn into a solid once it has reached the stomach.  Any ideas? Also, I will be meeting with the psyc, doctor, and nut next week....  Anything I need to know or be ready for?  Any questions anyone needs answered out there?

I've never been told that I could include milk in the mix. I hadn't heard about it turning into a solid though. I'm assuming that it has something to do with the interaction with stomach acid - the thing is though that the upper portion of your stomach that will be used to create your pouch does not really produce much stomach acid at all, so if it is stomach acid that you're relying on to cause this "solidifying" then you'll be out of luck. Of course you can ask this question when you meet with your nutritionist.  As for your appointment next week, a lot of people have some questions to ask and then forget to ask them, so it is recommended you right them down and bring them with you. Here is a link to a HUGE list of questions to ask at your appointment, of course you won't have time to ask all of them, but pick the one's most important to you and take them along, you may even find some questions in there you hadn't even thought of. http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/men/action,replies/board_i d,5479/cat_id,5079/topic_id,3329939/a,messageboard/
