Scared Im not going to do well on my liquids but Im just starting so I hope it will get better cause even though Im not hungry yet, all Im thinking about is FOOD!!! Got my broths, Water flavorings, Soups, Jello, Protein powders, yogurt, pudding, applesauce. Anything Im missing?

You go girl, follow the instructions and drink lots and lots of crystal light or Mio what ever you can do to stay full. When you think of food remember that when this is over and your back on solid foods you can eat your favorites again, just not as much. Think how great you will look with the weight off and wearing your skinny jeans instead of a cheeseburger ok?
