Honestly you are kind of lucky that you get to eat real food. Most liver cleanse diets consist of only liquid Protein and Clear liquids for a couple of weeks.

The first days are the toughest but I promise it gets better and yes it is absolutely worth it! For me by day 4 I did not even care anymore. Day 5 I was not even drinking all of the recommended liquids I could have.

Hang in there you can do this!

Mine is May 26th also.

On a complete liquid diet this week. Previous 2 weeks liquids plus one small meal of lean chicken and very low carb veg but no fruit. (So I could take antibiotics)

Just a few days to go, I know it's not easy but we are almost there.

Good luck.????

I don't envy you at all. I did a whole cabbage Soup diet only it was cabbage soup and more cabbage soup with a side of cabbage soup and for dessert, MORE cabbage soup! It was the WORST diet of my life and put me off cabbage for a good 10yrs. Seriously nasty stuff. I think I'd rather have to eat Jello, mainly because I hate jello anyway and I won't feel bad not wanting to eat Jello for the next 10yrs! haha
