all I could have as 5-6 protein shakes per day, plus unlimited sugar free beverages, sugar free popsicles, and sugar free jello. I could also have something like 8 oz of tomato juice, V8, or broth (I'm guessing they limited it because of the sodium). No solid food at all - so you're lucky.

Yep. This is mine too. I did get her approval to add (in 1 of the protein shakes): 1oz frozen blueberries, 1 1/2oz frozen chopped spinach, and psyllium. I can also add 6g of peanut "flour". I have about 10-12 days of it. Then 2 days prior to surgery, it switches to clear liquids only with a bowel prep. I'll do clear protein drinks at that time.
