ok guys love to hear from all of you and your progress....jelous!!!  am still in second week part two liquids...cant wait to start pureed ....very very hard to get liquids in ....man i used to drink 1 to 2 liters a day if not more and i can varely finish a small 16oz bottle, but since am still doing liquids i guess am not to bad.  now i have never been very fond of sweets but now i cant stand them  they make  me sick and taking in my protein is really a challenge. the powder even with jus****er is sickening and the bullets are soooooo gross. any ideas gang? anything helps.  and reading the posts i can believe how far some of you guys are on the diet and trying all those foods. personally i dont look forward to have foamies! and i cant even believe some of you have tried sweets!!! am terrified!  and sadly am not doing any work yet i will start walking tomorrow and going back to work next week.   so happy to report am able to get in my bed now and even sleep on my side a little bit . well i welcome all info and post from you guys i learn with you and from you daily .  keep up the good work!

Have you tried mixing the bullets with crystal light?
I add the fruit punch to about 20oz of fruit punch crystal light, and I can not even taste it! You really have to get that protein in. I realized that the weight won't come off very well until you take it in and all the water.

I also have trouble with my water intake and protein intake. I am so excited to be on mushies, that I forgot to drink my whole 1st day. I am going to try the bullet in crystal light trick. I have 12 of those darn bullets in my fridge!

Keep track of your liquids and each day try to fit in a little bit more.... that's what I had to do. I went from the first day out of the hospital being 17oz, to now getting in 40-50oz a day. It's getting harder again with not being able to drink for a 2 hour span, 3 times a day (30min before eating, 20-30 minutes to eat, 60 minutes after eating each meal).
As for the protein bullets, can you mix them with something? Or switch to a different kind of protein water or shake?

 im the same way i couldnt get the shakes down to save my life... too sweet an thick... im hooked on isopure water by natures best... and unflavored any whey protien.... the waters are not as sweet as even crystal lite.. very palitible.. but expensive.. almost $4 a 20oz bottle but 40gm protien...   and the any whey protien u can add to just about anything... my fav way to have it is added to chicken broth... 17gm protien per scoop.. its like 20$ a container... so not as expensive as waters.. good luck... u have to get in ur liquids.. or u can go in to tacicardia. spelling???  fast heart rate.. dizziness... etc...
