Thanks for all the helpful hints!! its day three, its getting better, but im wanting to cheat too much!! im trying my best though!! i like the shakes, i got the pre-made ones! they told me they were better!! the chocolate protien bars are good!! actually. i called my dietitian about a substituition for the soup, and he said add a chicken boun cube! aint tried it yet, still trying to get that taste out of my mouth. but i did eat some more tonight and boiled the water, much much better. i may learn to like it!! :wink2:
