Clear Liquid Diet Pre-op Question

I have to be on a clear diet only the day before my surgery next week.   I do not like to drink broth straight from the can, it doesn't even sound appetizing to me.  I was thinking of making my homemade chicken noodle soup but putting it through a sieve so I just have the broth and drinking udon soup broth (minus noodles) as well.  Would this be okay on a clear liquid diet?

Thanks!

I did it and had no issues.  I think they are mainly trying to make sure the liver shrinks so it isn't "in the way".

I ate lots and lots of Jello, they want your liver to be srunk so it's not in the way at surgery, it's hard but you can do it, I also used the bullion cubs which has more taest then the can stuff. Give it a try and hang in there your almost there!
