On the liquid pre-op stage my second day and I have had this nauseous headache all day and feel so worn out and have zero energy. How long does this last????

Just an update, day 3 the headache was gone and the slugglish feeling wasn't as powerful. I am on day 5 and feel pretty good especially after losing 12lbs in just 4 days!!! I guess it was all worth it.

Hello everyone, I have started my pre-op liquid diet yesterday and let's just say it is not an easy transition. I am having a hard time stomaching the Protein shakes, they remind me too much of that gross Barium you have to drink before a GI test. I really like the Carnation Instant Breakfast choc flavor, but that doesn't have as much protein in them as the other shakes. I only bought sample packs that are sold at my doctor's office to try and so far I hate them. Everywhere I go I think about, and smell food. I'm craving weird things like a darn sandwich sounds so good, scrambled eggs and toast, etc. I know this is all mental but I'm only on day number two and I am miserable. I have a headache and feel nauseous. Is this normal??? Does it get easier?

How are you so lucky that you still get to eat real food?? How long can you do that? I would imagine you still have to go to all liquids 2 weeks before right? I would be soooooo happy with soft foods and liquids. lol
