melt 1/2 lb butter in pot add above liquid plus 2.5 qts water add one bag zatarain crab boil bring to rolling boil add 1 lb shrimp 1 lb mussels and 1/2 lb scallops bring back to boil for 5 minutes

No
You have fat and veggies and protein in there. Onions are garlic are especially irritating. This will all stimulate your GI tract. Your goal is to rest it. Diluting and straining helps, but you still have the fat to deal with. I suppose you could chill it and pull off the layer of fat that forms on the top.

thats what I am doing now, all the fat should be at the top
okay, I can save that for later, howabout the drippings from a prime rib roast mixed with water? Sorry for the ignorance but the only liquid diet I have ever been on was based on copious amounts of beer. Bought some chicken stock at the store but I hates chicken. thanx, bill

Lots of lemons (ade) + maple syrup
I found that entirely satisfying for ~ 10 days once, on a 'fast.' No imaginations of dead cow meat or other -- which was as surprising to me as to others (was supposed to be a week, but I got into the habit and just went on ...)
A little red pepper to taste, makes it more interesting. But overdoing that, macho-style is likely counterindicated as a prep for surgery.

Well again,
You're dealing with the fat issue. You really have to avoid all fat, veggies, meat and grains. You can only eat food that is clear at room temperature. You can have fruit juices with no pulp. Coffee, tea, honey, jelly (not jam),clear, hard candy. If you cant see through it, you cant have it. And even though alcohol is clear, you cant have that either. You can have pop, though.
It's not much fun, but you just have to do it.
