Pre-Op Diet Starts Tomorrow!

I've had my food "funeral" and really went all out over the weekend. My one week out Atkins style diet starts in the morning. I've done Atkins in the past, so I'm ready for it. Will be in Mexicali with Dr. Aceves a week from Wednesday. Honestly I'm not near as nervous as my fiancé... I've actually had a few family members try to talk me outta of this (albeit all obese family members) so I was wondering... Those of you that decided to tell some people, how did that convo go? In my situation, the people that know me best knew that if I was at the point to tell them, the decision was made for good!

Over the weekend I was at my grandparents house having lunch with my fiancé. We never really talked about the surgery but talked about the time frame. I got up to go to the bathroom and my grandma gets all in my fiancés ear about me backing out. She said you know him, it ain't happening! I Love her, she knows me so well... It was all quiet when I returned to the kitchen table!
