Pre-Op Diet Progress

Hello all!  I figured I'd get back to you about my pre-op diet progress.
 
I'm on my 7th day of a 14 day liquid pre-op diet.  Overall it hasn't been too bad.  I definately get hungry and have the desire to eat something but I've been able to resist so far.  I did have cream of potato soup once...which probably wasn't the best but at least it was liquid!

I do have a question though.  Has anyone else who has gone through this gotten this weird weak/tired/almost dizzy but not feeling?  (Sorry I don't know how else to explain it).  This happens to me every day and sometimes twice a day lasting for a few hours.  I feel all disconnected and kinda spacey and really really weak.  I feel better after sitting or laying down for awhile (taking a nap works well too!).

Hi scandrona
I'm on day 4 of mine and yes I get that vague spacey slightly dizzy feeling I've also found I'm clenching my jaw a lot when that happens, I'm guessing it's the lack of calories and the fact Iv stopped all my vitamins- though I am just guessing at that.
I'm on three optifast shakes a day and green vegetables at night.

Well done on sticking to it and good luck for the next 7 days!!
