My surgery date is January 17th in Tijuauna with dr. Fernando Garcia. I'm starting to get nervous ... Anyone else with the same date or surgeon?

I'm going to Dr. Almanza in Tijuana on the 17th

Ok new year new life ... First day of liquid diet I only get Protein Drinks 5-6 and one egg or one piece of string cheese along with sf Jello or sf Popsicles :/ done better than I thought I would so far of ourse the day isn't over yet lol

LOL the people at the grocery store must have thought I was crazy with my 30 cases of sugar free Jello and pudding. I start my liquid diet on the 3rd. I have been able to sleep much, I have my scope tomorrow morning. I know there is nothing to be afraid of in concerns to the surgery itself. I am just worried how WLS is going to affect my personal relationships. I have gotten a lot support from a few family members, mainly because my mom got a lap band 2 years ago. However, my boyfriend along with other family members are telling me that I'm not "that fat" and that this is the "lazy way out" and why don't I just exercise. I explain to them that surgery or not I will still need to diet and exercise. Regardless, I'm really not understanding the "fat enough" logic. What does that even mean? Do I have to wait until my bmi is at 50 for WLS to be ok? SMH I didn't mean to rant but its frustrating especially since I am so close to surgery. Has anyone else been dealing with similar situations?

My BMI is 33 and I'm having my sleeve done on the 7th in Tijuana MX
