Clairemayx if your used to taking caffeinated beverages it could be withdrawal your having... Headache behind eyes and forehead, flu like symptoms, limbs feeling like dead weights, and tiredness... Depending on how much your intake was symptoms can last for days to weeks.. Mine was mild felt bad for two days but i also knew what was causing it.

Wow really , so would a black coffee help , I'm aloud that but can't add milk ,

I think it's a cold though my son had it last week I tryed everything not to catch it but knew I probably would.

If your allowed coffee yeah it may help but can prolong the detox from caffeine. My diet instructions say no caffeine allowed but then again i shouldnt be smoking... I did reduce

Wow uk plans dont include a shake mix of some kind? That is one thing that keeps me from feeling super hungery. I just added some orange extract to my vanilla shake mix and yum creamsicle!

Thanks. It's strange that the pre-op diets are all so different.

I'm so jealous of both of your diets!

I hope it is all worth it.
