Weak and tired. Anyone else feel this way on their liquid preop diet?

This is normal. Your body depended on large amounts of food, calories and carbs to receive it's energy. You have essentially cut all of that down by a lot. Remember that carbs are were we get most of our energy. Your body is slowly changing to a more Ketosis state in which it will burn fat for energy. The first 3 - 5 days can be tough. Just make sure you are getting in enough liquids and protein.

Everyone feels this change the first week of pre-op.

Thank you! I thought something was wrong! I also have a slight headache.

Don't forget to drink lots of water. I had the worst constipation on my life. If this happens to you, you can get some citrate...and a few other things. I wish i would have known there were thing out there for constipation relief...i really suffered. It's ans embarrassing subject, but one that needs to be talked about. You can also get miralax and put it in your protein shake..

Hang in there. I'm on day 10. By day 7, it seemed to get easier for me. More energy to get through work without out wanting a nap. Today was harder for me with food cravings for some reason. Then went to my friends 50th BDay party made it thru that & I've made it thru the day.

You can do this!
