Anyone else? Nausea comes in large waves and stays around most of the day, I am getting in all my water and tea and broth and feeling like a bag of crap to say the least the nausea is the worst. Started immediatley after my 1st shake 7 days ago.
It is going to be another long 7 days.

Hang in there!! you're half way threw it. try a decaf peppermint tea, it may sooth your tummy.Been thinking of you. Make sure the hubby sends me a message next week and let's me know how you made out.
talk to you soon

I get super nauseous off the vanilla.  Are you drinking both kinds or just one ?

Are you adding anything to it ?

I can choke down a vanilla if I replace the water with a decaf coffee but if I put any extra artificial sweetner in it it's a no go.

I don't add anything to the chocolate, just 400 mls of water and 4-5 ice cubes. 

What about Gravol for the nausea or a Ginger Tea ?  The Peppermint Tea is a good idea too.  There is also Peppermint extract you could put in the chocolate for a chocolate mint flavour.  Might help.

7 more to go.  You are 1/2 way there :)  You can do this !
