Meal or drink?

[mrs df]

Hi all,

I'm reaching the end of my first 2 weeks fluids only.
I've been counting bouillon as a "meal" because my serving has 10 cals in it.
When I move to purée food on Saturday, dyou think my bouillon should count as a meal or a drink?
Thanks

Moving on to purée then mashed etc is about texture, not calories. Bouillon is a drink. Don't panic at this stage, you are not getting many calories in so having a low cal, low fat hot drink won't hurt you x
Good luck with the next stage.

Thanks dinda,
Yep that makes sense. I couldn't really see how a 10 cal drink was a meal but my provider said calorific drinks should be counted as meals.

I know.... 2 weeks into my new life
I'm so happy and I feel great. No wind/pain....nothing. Masses of energy. A few detox symptoms like spot breakout and a 3 day headache which has gone now but so far so good.
Not long now huni x

At 10 kcals its not calorific. I count drinks like cafe lattes or cappuccinos as light meals. Anything under 50 kcals is a drink in my book.
