Since we know that the protocol followed by every surgeon is different, you really need to put this question to your surgeon.  He or she is the only one ultimately qualified to answer your question.  Whatever the direction is, you need to follow it, and only it.  It doesn't matter what other people were permitted to do -- you have to mind what you are permitted to do.

Just for a basis to compare, I had no pre op diet.  I chose to eat light the couple of days prior to surgery.  I couldn't have anything to eat or drink after midnight the night before surgery -- that was the extent of my direction.

I am on day  6 of a 14day  liquid diet. It is not easy  at  all for me but with support from friends and co-workers , i am getting through it one day at a time. Hang in there!!
Contact your Surgeon to see what  liqiuds you are allowed to have. You will want to comply  with what he has in the pre-op care plan. Good luck, my  surgery  is scheduled for 2/4/11
