RNY on 09/23/13

After countless appointments and months of supervised dieting I will be having my RNY on 9/23/13 exactly 5 days before my birthday! No better way I can think of celebrating my birthday!! Today is my first day of my pre-op liquid diet I feel fully prepared but I can't sleep.. Just thinking of all the changes coming my way. I am a RN I understand the mechanics and recovery expectations but I know nothing is like going through it yourself..any advice from those who have gone through their surgery?
