I am actually kind of nervous for the pre-op diet because I have to work while doing it.

I start my liquid diet on Jan 4th and will be working during my liquid diet also. I think I am more worried about the liquid diet more then the actual surgery ?

I'm having a sleeve on Jan 3rd. The pre-op diet is gonna be tough on Christmas ?

Yea I can imagine that will be hard but the surgery will be a great gift we can give all of ourselves and it will be worth the sacrifice of that Christmas meal. I will have to keep telling myself that it is worth it when it is time for my liquid diet.

Another Jan 18th here! I wished it could be before the end of the year but the more I think about the timing the more I like the date. I can still enjoy holiday cooking and start my 2 week pre op diet just as I would have started a diet in any other year LOL. My birthday is a few days before surgery so I told my family we would celebrate with a nice meal and small cake BEFORE I have to start the pre op diet. The surgery will be the perfect birthday present to myself!

I did the exact same thing. Had my bday dinner early And thought of the surgery as a gift. You will be very happy with your gift to yourself and feel great on your bday because you have started the journey. Congratulation.
