I used aleve. Doc said it was ok and only needed to take twice a day. Small pills so no crushing needed (cause that tastes awful!)

Yes mine was self pay for that reason. You will be fine. . Don't worry.

Yes but I did loose 5 lbs. I was barely made it at bmi 34.8. Just .2 more and would have been week! I liked some of the fast track protein items dr.currys team had available. Some icky but ate them cause I had to. But none horrible . Lived off hot chicken broth before and after

Woot woot! So excited for you! Cannot wait to do this for myself. . Only 2 weeks out.

Doc said it was bmi that decided. If under 35 or close it was 3 days. Higher bmi could have been week to a month. 2-3 day mark were struggle for me but it was mental. I could drink as much as I wanted and the protein many times a day really worked.

Hi Dk. Is it at your belly or throat? I had spasms when drinking cold for first week. I had everything warm or hot. Just able to have first Popsicle two days ago! Doc said those spasms can last one to three weeks.

You will be fine! I lost only one pound this week and we are in it together. ! Same dates same doctor. Don't worry. . Rob his my scale. Gives it to me once a week!

I am so sorry you are experiencing this. I have had no vomiting issues! This sounds horrible. I will keep you in my thoughts and please let me know if I can support you some how. Tonya

I am sorry you are feeling do upset. You have folks to depend on here! We are all going through this mental battle and we will get through it together. . Keep your chin up! Reach out when you need something. There are many great recipes out there. What do you like??

Glad you are out and no issues! Remember first few days are AWFUL! I am 8 days out and feeling really good today !
