I agree, quit smoking! It is a good time now! Try having something warm to start the morning. Don't over do whatever you have, but you need to break your fast!

Honestly, quitting can only help your health and well being as a whole. The fact it's making you nauseous now is just another sign it's time to stop.

I know quitting sucks. I'm an ex-smoker. I quit 2 1/2 years ago after smoking more than a pack a day for almost 20 years. As hard as it was to quit, I seriously love being a non smoker now. I can't begin to tell you how much better I feel. I look tons better, too. My skin, hair, and nails are so much healthier. Plus, I don't smell like nasty smoke anymore.

I used e-cigs to quit. I had tried Chantix, Patches, gum, and cold turkey and it never worked. For me, the e-cigs did the trick. It allowed me to wean off nicotine while still getting that hand to mouth smoking experience but without the smoke.

Good luck.

Hi....I smoke too, I too faced this as your blood sugars are low....same as if pregnant lol....as we can't have ginger biscuits.... I had a small bit of fresh ginger to suck on instead....but of course only if you like ginger lol.

Haha, for fear of upsetting the non smokers, yes you are correct...the healthy solution will be to quit....so I have to agree with them all....but if like me, we deal with the fact that we do smoke, and your asking for advice for the same, maybe try the ginger option for helping with your symptoms :-)...after all if it doesn't work....the giving up smoking would be the other option. Let me know how ya go hun.

Well that's one cigarette too many I'd say. Glad I gave up the habit cold turkey over 30 yrs ago and I was up to two packs a day.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
