Today Is the 7th day of broth and I'm about to go crazy. I can't stomach it anymore. I'm so tempted to try mash potatoes but yet I'm so afraid. I was sleeved on April 16th, and I have my follow up on tomorrow. Will it hurt to drink a Atkins Protein Shake?

Progressive makes a low sodium sante fe style soup. I strain it and drink the broth. SO GOOD!!!

Will definitely check it out

I use a whole chicken and sometimes a package of wings too, water to just about cover the chicken, couple carrots, couple celery stalks with leaves, one onion, 6 peppercorns, about a teaspoon of salt - let that come to a boil then turn down to simmer for a few hours. Strain the soup, put in frig overnight. Skim fat off top that has solidified during the night. Makes a wonderful soothing broth. Oh, I also sometimes use 15 to 32 oz of canned chicken broth to make more, and if adding at the beginning it loses the can taste completely.

I put garlic powder in my broth to flavor it up. I also used Mrs. Dash for extra flavor. Sam's Club has real good chicken broth.

doreykin - what exactly is the chicken broth you're getting at Sam's? Thanks
