Is it possible to gain weight on liquid diet?

Tomorrow is my final day of eating regular food before I begin my 2 week pre-op liquid only diet. Has anyone ever gained weight during the liquid only stage? I've been eating 600-750 calories, under 30g of carbs and high protein diet daily and have lost 24 lbs in a month! I'm scared I'm going to gain on 3 protein shakes per day! My pre-op weigh in was 253 so I to have lost some weight by my surgery date March 12th. I'm stocked up on sugar free jello, chicken broth, unjury protein powder, sugar free Popsicles and other whey protein powders plus premiere protein water...any other suggestions or tips?

I suppose if you were chugging milkshakes you could find a way to gain weight during that stage. I wouldn't sweat it. Good luck.
