    I'm half way through cycle one. I am doing yogurt one morning, eggs the next, smoothies the next, and then alternate. Lunches are some kind of salad (I do lots of various salads). Dinners are protein and fiber

    hello, I'm on day 1 today, so can I join you for encouragement, please?
    How's it going for you?
    I've had smoothie and eggs for breakfast :blushing: today.
    Was thinking of omelette for tea, but I'll shift that to tomorrow, and we'll go for some chicken I think.
    I find it tricky to cater for family of 5 while doing this as it's a bit bland for them, even if I add potatoes/pasta to theirs, as dh isn't too keen on poultry or fish (will tolerate once or twice a week but not the everyday I need for this!). He was due to go away next week, but that may have been delayed a week which is a pain.
    Right, off to make lunch to take to dh's work for a picnic while watching a local lad race in paralympics!

    Good luck with the 17DD. I'll be checking on your progress from time to time. So, when you feel like you're on you own...forget it, someone out there is cheering for you and expecting you to stay with the program! :smile:

    We can do this...remember to mentally make a toast in the morning when drinking your lemon water, because I'll be doing the same! :smile:

    I find it interesting thaat you are having trouble getting your family on board with the menus here. I have 8 children and a fairly picky husband and they have been loving the food. What is a normal menu in your house (not on a diet plan just what everyone normally eats)? Do you have the recipe book that goes along with this diet?
