jessb418 42 Posted August 20, 2014 So I began my two week fast yesterday. I was instructed to have six Protein Shakes a day. I only made it to five...I have stomach cramps, bloated and feel terrible. Is this normal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MissAriadne 27 Posted August 20, 2014 I started my liquid diet yesterday too. I felt horrible yesterday (lightheaded, spacey, running to the bathroom every. five. minutes) but I'm feeling much, much better today. I've heard the first few days are the hardest. I hope you feel better soon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeckiLynne 9 Posted August 20, 2014 I'm right there with you. Started yesterday and my head is hurting. Can't get nearly enough of my shakes in. I'm hoping it gets easier after a few days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessb418 42 Posted August 20, 2014 Ughh it's terrible. I've done fast before and really thought thI was going to be easy. I'm hoping day three tomorrow I start feeling better or it will be a long two weeks. Feel better everyone! Let me know when your break thru happens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hcabrooks197 20 Posted August 21, 2014 I started the shakes last Tuesday night and for three days I threw up violently. They finally took me off them and I started the south beach diet. Which I will not loose nearly enough liver fat. But I want to know what im going to do after surgery? How will I get enough Protein if I cant tolerate the shakes?

MissAriadne 27 Posted August 21, 2014 Day 3 is okay! Minor headache. Feeling better, though, and drank a WonderSlim pudding shake this morning and it was the best. thing. ever. It was like drinking pie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessb418 42 Posted August 21, 2014 Yah I'm feeling better on day three as well. Now that I'm feeling better I am HUNGRY! I can't believe we have to do this for so long. Does one meal really make that big of a difference in your liver shrinking?!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessb418 42 Posted August 22, 2014 Day four not feeling that great again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissAriadne 27 Posted August 22, 2014 Day 4 is good! I found these WonderSlim shakes and I add extra Protien and they taste like pie. I've had a headache too, but ibuprofen is working well. I'm also clearlllyyyy detoxing on sugar and caffeine and started crying yesterday when I thought about Cookies. But it was only momentary. . Haven't cheated and am feeling good... And 7 pounds lost!

BeckiLynne 9 Posted August 22, 2014 I am feeling a little bit better today. @@jessb418 have you been getting enough Water? I noticed I feel better when I'm hydrated. I am still no where near the amount of shakes I'm supposed to have, but I figure as long as I don't cheat, I'll be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessb418 42 Posted August 23, 2014 I thought that but I am drinking all day everyday. I felt good yesterday and this morning but then in the afternoon i went downhill. I am hoping for a big turn around or I have no idea how I will make it thru when it's only day 4! I was proud of myself..my husband and son got pizza and i didn't have ANY. So tempting tho especially since I had to cut it in peices for my son. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeckiLynne 9 Posted August 23, 2014 I understand the pizza issue completely. I've got 3 preschoolers and on day 2 my husband got pizza, which I had to cut up. I may have taken a piece or 2 of bacon off of the top and maybe one pineapple bit. I couldn't help it! Congrats to you for not giving in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissAriadne 27 Posted August 23, 2014 I'm feeling better when I drink a lot of Water too. Oohhh, I so understand the pizza thing. My husband is eating French toast and sausage and I most started crying. And I'm not even hungry! Gahhhhh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
