This is my third day of liquids only. I haven't cheated at all..... yet. I think I can hold out until my surgery the 22nd...

Since yu asked, no - I didn't cheat. Remember that the general goal of the pre-op diet is shrinking the liver, not weightloss. A meal a day could be ebough to prevent the liver from shrinking adequately, while still allowing for weightloss. Whatever your pre-op diet is, I suggest strongly sticking to it. If the surgeon gets in there and the liver isn't adequately shrunk, they will (usually) revert to an open vs. lap procedure. You don't want to go there if you don't have to.
