Pre-op liquid diet...is this right?

I just started my liquid diet today and I already feel like I'm doing it wrong ???? My Meal Replacement powder says one serving is 8 ounces of Water and 2 scoops of powder. Well, for some reason the 8 ounce mark on the shaker/mixer/tumbler thingy doesn't look like much at all. Doesn't seem like 8 ounces. I'm only allowed 5 shakes a day...which equals out to 800 calories. Do anyone else's servings seem real little? Obviously I know I'm not going to be drinking 5 huge shakes, I just am second guessing myself at every opportunity and need reassurance.

8 oz is one cup, so use a different measuring cup to see if it's correct. Seeing it in another container might help your brain adjust to the serving size.
