The purpose of the pre-op diet is to shrink your liver not to lose weight (a smaller liver makes it easier for the doctor to install the lap-band during the surgery). Based on the diet you described, you are already having carbs, anyhow (grits, frozen yogurt, etc) so I wouldn't lose any sleep over this.

OOOOHhhh tomorrow is so exciting...that was me last Sunday I got my band on July 9th, day of surgery I came home (surgery was at 8am home by 1230) that day I slept alot...but Tues was had to drink and then the gas pain came horrendous for 3 days....however 6 days out still recovering on full liquids now...thankfully....and feeling better just little energy so I am milking my husband for everything...I deserve it....
3 weeks including 2 wks of pre op diet....I have lost 26lbs....yeah me....
Wish you luck....keep the board updated I will be thinking of you tomorrow
