Pre-op Diet Question

I have a question that I am hoping someone can help me with. I have been scheduled for LAP-BAND???? surgery on November 19 and I am so excited but just a little nervous. My surgeon usually does the 2 week protein shake pre-op diet with her patients. Since I lost 62 pounds on my 6 month doctor supervised diet, she is not worried much about the size of my liver and instead has put me on a 1,200 calorie diet which will be for 10 days total before I have my surgery. Does anyone think it would be a good idea to take the last three days of my pre-op diet and just drink four to five protein shakes each day instead to maybe help shrink the liver a little more or will it make any difference at all? Any and all answers would be appreciated!
