KathyRS 29 Posted August 19, 2015 I'm August 25th. Been able to stay on the diet. It was miserable and suddenly, it kinda wasn't. One weird side effect is this extra hyperness/tension. Anyone else experience anything like that? I know I can get through 6 more days. Gotta carefully space out the shakes though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KathyRS 29 Posted August 19, 2015 I think it's harder if you mess up. I stuck to it strictly and it got easier about 6pm on day 3. After it was mostly easy with moments that were really really hard. But it's not that hard every minute, the whole time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone else experience anything like that? I know I can get through 6 more days. Gotta carefully space out the shakes though. I think the hyperness is from the date getting closer. I am experiencing this now. On my pre op diet they want you to have a minimum of 5 Protein shakes. So I space them every 3 hrs and it seems to be working. I also started taking my Vitamins which includes Vitamin B1, bariatric one a day Vitamin and Calcium 1500 a day. They also recommended getting Biotin its suppose to help with hair lost. Good luck.

KathyRS 29 Posted August 20, 2015 I appreciate what you guys are saying, and this is going to sound funny coming from me, since I am a marriage and family therapist as well as a pyschology professor, but the tension/hyperness I've been feeling is not emotional, it's physical. I think it might be a by product of being in ketosis, because it started right after the diet got suddenly easier on day 3. Also, I have a diabetic kid, and I was curious if I was passing ketones, so I used some Keto strips and sure enough when the pee strip was reading more ketones, I was having both the easiest time on the diet, and having the weird tension/hyperness. It's not really bad. It's totally physical, and I was wondering if anyone else was getting this. Just sorta curious. Now as far as emotions go, I was so anxious and terrified before, but I haven't been at all in the last week. Just trying to get things together at work, so I could have the time off, and also really looking forward to it. Previously, I was so nervous, I wasn't experiencing the hope and happy anticipation much. Now I am. I feel like this week on the diet is actually easier than last week, worrying about the diet.
