Answers:
Dear karkee- The reason you are starving is because a clear liquid diet is not adequate in calories and nutrients!. It should not be used for more than five days unless high-protein gelatin or other low-residue supplements are added!.

Sample Menu which might help:
Breakfast
strained fruit juice
1 cup
gelatin 1 cup
hot tea with sugar
& lemon

Lunch
consomm
