What were you allowed on pre-op liquid diet?

I am going to be starting my liquid diet before surgery to shrink my liver. What all were you allowed in this phase? Did surgery go smoother following it?

    I just found the most amazing thing at Walmart while shopping for pre-op Clear Liquids. Swanson has some flavored broths - I got Hot & Sour and chicken Tortilla. They also had a wasabi ginger and another chicken-type flavor. The hot & sour is pretty intense, but WAY better than plain chicken and beef broth :)
