had a nice dinner and ice cream (DQ has always been my favorite ice cream, but they are so scarce around here). Your food sounds much like a colon cleanse fast for colon work. Day one is never hard for me. Days two and three are difficult for me, and I have a few white knuckle moments, but after day three, I stop being hungry anymore. After a week, I can watch recipe shows and food commercials, and they don't bother me. My problem is my husband not being able to stand me not eating. In the hospital, I was NPO for almost three weeks, and he kept wanting to offer me part of his dinner. He is worse at home. I know that Ray is very supportive so I hope that after day three it doesn't bother you at all.
