Started all clear liquids 8/5 for pre-op surgery and am still on liquid diet today 8/13. How could I be gaining with only water and protein drink? I have gained 10 pounds!

How much can I lose if I follow all of the doctor's orders? I had a lapband removed Oct 2017 and am getting a sleeve next month. I weigh 188 lbs and wonder if it is worth it. Thanks for any help!
