Sunday will be difficult as it's the all-liquid day with cleanse starting at 4pm. I have veggie broth (No tomatoes in it), lemon sorbet, ginger ale, clear gatorade, tea. What else? I will starve.

I have to start at 4am next morning with remaining cleanse for 9am procedure. Nothing after 6am.

So you can't have jello bc you're a vegetarian? That's the only thing that made me feel full the day before. Although once you start all of the water/liquids for the final prep you won't be hungry anymore.

I did not find this to be true, and it was torture making dinner for my family while waiting for stuff to happen from the prep.
