Fast forward to your surgery date: Docs are all standing around an operating table w/nurses bustling to and fro. The lights are all eerily dim except for a bright beam shining down on the patient lying prone...
Doc 1: (shaking his head) Just too bad. Close 'er up.
Doc 2: Yep, such a waste. (to nurse) Someone call to get me a tee time.
Doc 1: It was that darn sandwich and chips! How did that get in there when I'm positive I told her liquids only for 2 weeks? Can I join you for a round?
Nurse: Shall we reschedule in six months after another supervised diet, 2 weeks of liquid and another bowel prep, doctor?
Fade to black.
Yeah, Right! You'll be fine!! Stop stressing. I'm betting the stress of eating the sammy and chips is doing more harm than the meal!
Sorry for the morbid humor!
