Well, I made it through day 1 and felt good. I only got in 2 shakes, but made a large pot of homemade chicken soup and had 3 oz of chicken with a few carrots and celery. Lots if broth. I also had jello. Drank LOTS of fluids and had more broth. Also had a 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. I really think I can do this! .

You can do this, you are on your way. Keep up the good work!

Of course you can do this!

I'm starting today, hope I feel as accomplished as you do at the end of the day! :-)

You can do it! Make home made chicken soup/stock if you can, it works well. using my jewish grandmothers wonderful receipe, take a whole chicken and put it in a pot with garlic cloves, onion, carrots and celery, salt and pepper and cover it with Water. Be generous with the salt. Boil it for maybe 45-60 minutes, then take whole chicken out and set aside, strain stock and discard the veggies. Put strained stock back in pot, add new carrots, celery, onion and take chicken de-skin it and shred it into pieces. Add back into stock and cook until newly added veggies are soft. Its Awesome! You can leave the chicken in and take little bits if you want or you can omit the chicken and keep the broth with veggies. If you omit it, Use shredded chicken for fresh chicken salad for the family. I also have been drinking a lot of herbal tea (mandarin orange) with equal. It keeps the belly warm, full and it's sweet! Enjoy!

The tea sounds great. I just vomitted. I think from the Multivitamins I'm taking. I took 2/4 chewable Vitamins with Jello. I think I need to stick to taking the vitamins with a meal!

I haven't thought of making my own chicken broth. I went out and bought some. That's a good idea though. My pressure cooker would work wonders on making a stock. Hmm... I don't live with family, but I am allowed 1 meal per day with 4 oz of meat cheese and/or egg with a half cup of veggies. So I could use the chicken!

Absolutely! Use the chicken to eat your meal. You will have a ton of it that will last a week!
