Did you get a PPI like prilosec?? I had an acid burning feeling and for the first 2 weeks i doubled up on mine and was taking the one from the doctor and an over the counter one because it was burning in my stomach and felt like I was starving. As for head hunger... girrrrl that's a whole nother beast. You have to psych yourself out and pretend that that broth is a gourmet meal!
by the way I was down 27 and then for 2 days the f*&&()^^^%$$ scale went up, so finally today it is 26.2 or 26.8, ( half sleep right now) I am very disappointed aint doing nothin different...so why in the heck did that scale jump up 2 pounds....it almost got tossed out the window.......
Well hopefully I can keep my butt off the scale everyday, but it is sooo hard

I go up and down too and I always log the lowest number and when it goes up I KNOW it's water weight and that it is going to come off in a few days. When I went to the hospital for dehydration and had ONE IV bag, I gaine FIVE pounds and it stayed for days. Eventually it all came off and then some. That's how I kinda learned that lesson. Everyone says it but I saw it in action. From my understanding, one way to lose water weight is by drinking more water...

If the doctor says it's ok, have him give you the prescription because it will be cheaper to pay the $10. The over the counter stuff is ridiculous! I've also heard some people say that certain ones don't work for them so you may have to experiment. I took one of mine in the morning and the other at night.
