Feel like crap

[JinTx 19]

So i decided to start the diet my nut and dr recommended i start asap. I will still do Protein Shakes 14 days before surgery.

I feel like total crap. Diet is no more than 20 net carbs per day, at least 12 must be from veggies. I started yesterday and have had a headache since noon that day. Also, i am major addicted to soda. I can still have diet sodas now but decided to cut it now since i dont want to drink them post op. My head is pounding. Meds dont make it go away. I dont know if its from the lack of carbs or lack of caffiene.

Sucks.

It took at least three to four days before my headache stopped. I stopped caffine ,oda pop and sugar at the same time. I feel so much better since I have all of that out of my system. It has been a little over three months now.

Hang in there you can do it. Remember what your long term goal is! Good luck!

I went straight to bed yesterday after posting bc i felt awful. I debated between walking and sleeping...sleep won. Lol. Literally my head was pulsing. Today is day 3 and i feel great so far this morning. I also want to get all the sugar, soda and junk out of my system now. Here's to a new day!!!

Glad to see you're feeling better. Me on the other hand, I am a GRRRROUCH! I don't know if I'll ever make it to surgery Monday.

I felt the same way. Stopped Diet Soda on Saturday and had a headache for three straight days. Today is the first day that it hasnt hurt. It was awful. Tomorrow is my clear liquid diet and then nothing after that until surgery. Had my last meal tonight. toast, eggs and hashbrowns. So badddd.!
