One of the things I love about the "liquid" diet is that foods you normally take for granted seem so much better. I like corn on the cob a lot, and I've only been on the "liquid" diet for less than a day, but by lunch time, I was really missing food.
Darcy made me some delicious corn on the cob as a snack around 2:30. It was phenomenal. Some of the best corn on the cob I've ever had, and even better since I was so hungry.
Another thing I like about being on a strict diet like this is that it takes away my choices. Generally, I much prefer choices, naturally, but when I'm ready for a stark change, sometimes it's a nice break to have my food choices already made for me. It's simple, and I'm getting all the nutrients and calories I need. I've had 626 calories today, and I've already gotten in 24 grams of fiber, and 36 grams of protein (and less than 5 grams of fat).
I'm going to take a break from working in a bit to head out to the gym. Thank goodness I can go for a swim when I get home, because it's a SCORCHER!

Oh man, that corn looks good! I picked up some corn at Hanaford this morning and seeing that picture makes me want to cook it right now!
Good job on getting back focused on your health.
What a corny post....lol. I love corn, especially this time of year. I believe I will be having some for lunch. Thanks for my meal planning.
