I hate to say it but I messed up on my pre-op last Saturday by drinking some alcohol. My surgery is Friday and I'm a little scared that my liver will not be shrunk up enough. Is it possible to just drink liquids for 3 days and have my liver small enough to do the surgery?

I don't know what surgery you are having, I had a sleeve, but we only had a two day clear diet, so I imagine you will be fine. Some doctors are just overly cautious, different protocols. Just don't cheat again--not just for the liver but alcohol thins your blood.

Don't beat yourself up. I don't know any WLS patient who hasn't slipped at least once. You've acknowledged your slip, now move on. You should be fine. You are not alone. Good luck.
