Just made my first pot tonight to start the diet tomorrow (Sunday).  I'm going to freeze half of the batch to have for later on in the week so it tastes a little fresher down the road. 

I'm on a limited budget so I can't exactly afford the "extras" but will be eating my veggies and fruits when I can.  I'm going to hate not having my morning coffe though!  That will be very difficult. 

I don't know what I weigh right now, but when I can get back in my skinny jeans I'll know that I have lost a little bit! LOL!

Hang in there!  WE CAN DO THIS!  It's only 7 days!

I am on day 3.  If you didn't guess from my name, I am tired of cabbage.  I own a pizza shop though and seeing food every day kind of takes the edge off, even if I am not eating any.

I did break down and have a piece of cake tonight though.  My wife made it for Father's Day, so I couldn't really turn it down, and I really didn't want to either.  I took my dog for a very long walk today, so I think I can afford the 200 or so calories.

I can't wait to eat a steak tomorrow.

Kj - Try unsweetened cranberry juice.

Hi 1978, I'm on day 1 also.  Its going ok right now, but its still early.  I'm drinking lots of water.  I didn't have time to make my spinach (which is a replacement for the soup), but I brought lots of fruits.  When I go home I'll make my spinach

Cyndy:   Can you drink your coffee black?   I'm still drinking black coffee on the diet.
Everyone:  I'm starting Day 1 today, also.   Have some frozen soup from last time which I'll start on, and then I'm going to use spinach instead of cabbage when I make a new batch.   
Have 10 days before I go on vacation.   Would like to lose 15 pounds, but I know there's no way I'll lose that in 10 days.

Today is day 1 for me, pretty good so far. A recommended I take some Spirulina while doing this, hopefully is help. Spirulina has protein in it and it helps even out your blood sugar. I just ate the soup for the first time, its actually better than I thought it would be!!

Its a dietary supplement you can buy at any natural foods supermarket such as whole foods or wild oats.

here is a website that tells about it

Its only half way through day one for me, but I feel pretty good!!
