Congratulations!!!! I fell in love with HOT and SOUR Soup from a Chinese Restuarant..got me thru the rugh times of felling hungry all the time, and the warmth made my new pouch feel so happy. Also, cottage cheese flavored with yogurt, yogurt on its own is good. Don't forget your Protein Drinks, mashed potatoes thinned with water or skimmed milk, Carb Countdown Milk, I love the Chocolate and mix it with my proein powder every day. I am down from size 22 to size 6 and some 4's. I am also AT GOAL!!! It is SO WORTH IT !!! Email me if you would like, I will help as much as I can. Cindy

I remember I loved eating Watermelon chunks (about 3 or 4 max), Cream of Wheat made with 1/2 milk and 1/2 water, (with a little sweet n low and milk on top), cottage cheese, and yogurt smoothies. Tomato soup with canned vegees in it also was a diversion. Most canned soups (like vegetable) have soft enough vegees in them to tolerate during this phase. Stay away from noodles or rice. Best of luck to you!

I ate scrambled egg beaters. I was so suprised at how they tasted just like real eggs. I got the ones that are not not just egg whites. I still eat them. I use them in all my baking and cooking and they come in three diferent kinds, there is southwestern, garden, and regular. They are in the refrigerated section where the cottage cheese, butter and yogurt are at Walmart. I also use a spray butter. I Can't believe It's Not Butter is the brand i use. Sugar free pudding made with skim milk. I also ate a lot of baby food.

Wendys Chili -it's great-low in fat and high in protein, put it in the blender if needed
