Do other people start to diet and work out while waiting for surgery?

I am waiting for my surgery appointment right now. I'm wondering if others who are waiting now are still eating the same way they used to or are you starting to diet and trying to eat what you'll have to eat post-op? I am trying to eat what I'll have to eat post op partially because I want to get as healthy as I can before surgery and partially just to get used to it. But I am failing miserably and it's bringing me down. I know if I could do Atkins/protein shakes without fail, I probably wouldn't need the surgery to begin with, but it's still bugging me. Does this have anything to do with how I will be able to comply post op? Thanks for your feedback!
