I am getting sleeved 12/12/12, too! I started my full liquid diet today. I spent most of the day yesterday making soups and broths for when I come home. I apologized to my husband in advance for any crankiness over the next few days. I also plan to spend as must time as possible getting out of the house and being active, maybe I will forget how hungry I will be. I figure today and tomorrow are the perfect time to go get all the Christmas presents. Besides, shopping on a holiday weekend is great exercise!
