The following code will work

Calendar fromDate = Calendar.getInstance();
fromDate.setTime(new Date());
fromDate.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 0);
fromDate.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 0);
fromDate.set(Calendar.SECOND, 0);
fromDate.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 0);

Calendar toDate = Calendar.getInstance();
toDate.setTime(new Date());
toDate.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 23);
toDate.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 59);
toDate.set(Calendar.SECOND, 59);
toDate.set(Calendar.MILLISECOND, 999);

criteria.add(Restrictions.between("loadDate", fromDate.getTime(),
                    toDate.getTime()));
