Liquid Diet and Feeling Fuzzy...



Recommended Posts

I'm three days into the liquid diet and I'm feeling fuzzy headed and kind of weak. I've said the wrong word in conversation more than once, I've dropped stuff .. is this normal? Doctor's diet is a no carb-protein powder mixed with milk and broth, along with the usual set of sugar-free/caffeine-free drinks. I'm lucky to only have one week with this!

It's pretty normal for your body to feel weird when you shock it with such a drastic change. I am DREADING pre-op diet but I also know that if I can get through that I'm in the clear. I've seen lots of people post-op say the same thing. Do you have any blood sugar issues? If it's unbearable you need to call your doctor, but any time I have done slim fast or medifast I have felt pretty creepy for about 3 days and then been good to go after that.

Totally felt that way anytime I did shakes that were low carb and when I did media fast they told me because it's low xsl, low carb, low sodium maybe my blood pressure was to low. They had me eat a few pickles?

I never got that feeling, but speaking of fuzzy, I noticed when I do a liquid diet my teeth get extra fuzzy feeling.

This is the part I am not looking forward to. I have to do a 4 week liquid diet prior to surgery.

Still giggling at the fuzzy teeth @@Busymomof3! Today was better for me, less spacey. I've upped my "broth" consumption, the salt is soooo good. I"m already sick of the sweet shakes. Anybody have good luck with the chicken broth Protein stuff?
