Liquid Diet + Upcoming Family Reunion = Pressure

So I get banded on Aug. 23 and my dr. doesn't require a pre-op liquid diet but I'm doing it anyway just to ensure liver reduction and less complications there. My problem is that my family reunion is on Aug. 19, right in the midst of my liquid diet I LOVE eating at the reunion all the good food my family members bring. I plan on taking a couple protein shakes with me (Unjury all the way) but don't know what else I should take to ensure that I stay focused being around all that food. Is unsweetened apple sauce ok? Any suggestions would be helpful. It's outside so I don't have access to a microwave for broth and it will be hot out.   Please help becuse I feel I will cave around all that food and I don't want to.   Missy

Date Set

Well, just got the call this morning around 10:30 that my insurance has approved my surgery and it's now scheduled for Aug. 23!!!! I could have scheduled for the 16th and that was my plan but there are a lot of things going on here at work that I needed to be here for so I pushed it to the 23rd. The nurse said they also had Aug. 9th open but that's a little TOO early for me. It's all becoming very REAL now. I mean, I knew the time would come but now that it's here I'm nervous, anxious, scared, excited, and really having second thoughts. Is this normal? Anyone else feel the same?   But I know to get healthy this is what I HAVE to do. I can't do it alone, I need this tool to help me. I can do it!! I've GOT to do it!   Please everyone who reads this, please send advice. I need it.
