I have been using just a bullion cube in bolied water, or I get the campbells soup broth that is low fat and low sodium, about a cup serving at a time, once or twice a day.

Hey there! I'm one of those June "babes". It will be fun to do this with the group! It'll be nice to share our losses with each other. And when we hit those inevitable "plateaus" its going to be nice to know that I'm not alone!

How much broth are you eating at one sitting? I am so afraid to eat the broth. I have been sucking on sf popscicles and I have taken one shake today. You're so right the shakes are so grossss!!!!!! So you lost 5lbs in 2 days, that is great!!! I ate a banana today and I know that is a no no, but this liquid diet is so gross. I need to get back on point tomorrow because I know I have to stay focus.

Hey, its been two days,.......two days of HELL ahhhhhhhhhh. This liquid diet is nasty nasty nasty!! I have had to change mine and tweak it a bit as long as I am staying under the 1000 cal limit each day. I tried the shakes that they told me to drink and couldn't keep them down, I even tried a different brand and that make me sick to my tummy. So I have been eating a lot of broth, sf jello, protien bar 2x a day, lots of water, water, water, and gaging down one shake taking small sips throught the day. I can say the diet does work as I have lost 5 pounds in the last two days.........yea me! Anyone on a diet that is not a liquid? What are you allowed to eat?
