 I am on the fourth day of my liquid diet.  It's not all that bad, but I don't get the weight loss/gain.  After the first day I had lost a whopping 6 lbs.  Then the next day I gained 1 lb and the next day another 1 lb gain.  I was well under 1,000 calories per day!  Has anyone else had this sort of experience?

Hello,
Not sure if this is correct but maybe since it was liquid that you are retaining water? If what you are eating is hight in salt that could be it! Also if we do not eat enough calories in a day our bodies can go into starvation mode and hold on what ever it is we are eating, thinking it will end soon!

Do they make sense? I hope it helps some what.....Best of luck
