That's funny, you don't look like a good old salad.

You're your own motivation. You can do this. You're made of tough stuff.

Hot things helped me survive my 10 days. Hot herbal tea, cream of chicken, cream of tomato, cream of mushroom (strained of solids) made with Fair Life Skim Milk. Cream of Wheat thinned, hot broth.

I experienced liquid diet hunger towards the end. Once you get to solid foods it;s so much better! Hang in there! You got this

mstrice don't do it the lettuce will sit in your throat for hours and you not supposed to have any green type veggies unil your six weeks I simply ate 4 ounces of chicken broth a no sugar added sugar free popsicle and Water or 4 ounces of crystal lite until I was full. Don't make yourself sick it's painful keep us posted

Definitely don't eat anything you're not cleared for.

Try mixing it up.. I was so sick of sweet stuff, I had some chicken bouillon with Protein powder (mix up the Protein Powder with warm Water, then mix that with the hot water and bouillon) and that was heaven.

I also did better with the clear Protein drinks frozen into ice pops.

Just keep plugging away, focus on fluids first, then protein, and you'll get through it. It gets better!

The phase you're in was one of the hardest for me.

Consider changing your state. I'm not suggesting you move out of your house. :-) What I mean is that when you're thinking about food, recognize it, and purposely start doing something else. Just about anything else. Take a walk, read a book, do your favorite hobby, contribute here, etc. Talk with other people. Tell them what you're going through. Ask for help. You can do this!

2 words...bone broth. If you can't make your own, Walmart carries the Sam's Choice brand. It's liquid, but it just tastes so much better than plain broth.
