|  Two days until SDAY!
Day one of liquid diet in the books and I am wishing I didn't do this around Christmas time but trying to stay focused and not think about all the food and drinks around me. I am really looking forward to getting the surgery part behind me and being able to begin anew, and at the New Year no less! I was about to lose my mind and eat some mashed potatoes when I discovered this forum, so thank you all for being here, even if no one reads this. 
Merry Christmas!

Hang in there! You're giving yourself such a great gift in just a couple days! Don't give in to the 'tato temptations! 
And, just so you know, this is an awesome place for support and encouragement, and sometimes, a kick in the pants. 
Take care and hope all goes well for your surgery. 
April (slim-a-bear)

lulu, something like this will never be convenient. There'll never be a perfect time for it. I was on my 2-week liquid pre-op diet this time 4 years ago. Yeah, I had to forego a lot of holiday treats, but I was giving all that up anyway, so I figured I might as well get on with it! It doesn't matter when you do it, it only matters that you do it!
Good luck Tuesday!! I think there's someone else on the list doing it that day, too. December 27th worked just fine for me. It worked so well, in fact, that my wife decided to have RNY too, and now we're both members of the Century Club! Our lives have been transformed in too many ways to count, all of them good. We cannot think of a downside to having had RNY.

Crazy? Not even close!! Look at some of the old posts and you'll see that we've all been through it. There's a major adjustment you will have to make in how you think about your old "friend". Your relationship with your body will change, too!
Keep thinking about this and what it's going to mean to you. Neither of you can imagine just how good your life is going to become, starting tomorrow.
Good luck, ladies!!
