Protein Shakes & Pre-op weight lose

My surgery is in 3 weeks and I still have 8 pounds to loose. I'm worried that if I don't loose the 8 pounds my surgery will be canceled despite already loosing 22 pounds. It seems like this weight is hanging on for dear life...lol. So, I'm thinking about start my 2 week pre-opt diet a week early. Which includes 2 protein shakes a day and one meal. Any other tips to help me get these 8 pounds off?!??
