Night before surgery!
I would guess that as it was liquids it isn't going to matter. And you will presumably be nil by mouth overnight anyway because of the anaesthetic. But if in doubt, check with your doctor. Best wishes for tomorrow.
Highest 290, Banded - 248 Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.
Happily banded since May 2006. Regain of 28lbs 2013-14. ALL GONE!
But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,
Dominiqueexo, I am having my RNY on September 10 (can't wait!). My NUT considers sugar-free jello a clear liquid, and here is a link to a thread made a while back on OH. However, I would not know what your doctor and NUT would say. Best to you on your surgery!

I go in for my revision repair tomorrow also. Jello is fine. Powerade zero. Smar****er. And regular water.
Dont be nervous. You will do great!

I was always taught if you can see through it then it's clear fluids. Jello, water, tea no cream or milk, Popsicles, flat ginger-ale, etc.. Now given that we are WLS patients we should probably choose sugar free as well. Good-luck tomorrow, hoping you do well and have a quick uneventful recovery :-)

Jello is a clear liquid. But I'd check with your doctor about any questions and avoid anything you are unsure about until you can check.
