Started the Protein sparing diet yesterday

Good morning everyone, I started the diet of all diets.....I started yesterday and notice that by 8 last night I was extremely tired, I think it is because I am only consuming 9 oz of meat, 3 cup of broth and lots of water.....I am now on day 2 and things are a little easier today, I had my 3oz for breakfast microwave bacon very lean.....a cup of beef broth and my multivitiam and my potaium pill....I know I need to do this and that is what I am keeping in mind I am 1/2 the way there, once I go to Dr Barajas office on Monday and do the test then I just have to wait for the date, I am very nervous but looking forward it to what is in the near future....I could have my surgery in July or august....

I know how tough this is to do Barbara as I had to do it myself for Dr. Valin. The great thing is that I also lost ten pounds when I was done. Good luck, I know you'll do great. Maggie

Hi Barbara, I too went on that diet for Dr. Nazdam. I also lost ten pounds as well. If you like seafood 3 ounces of that frozen precooked shrimp in a cup of chicken broth with a touch of onion powder and heated was my favorite. I still have it for lunch from time to time. Take care and good luck! After surgury it gets better every day! Julio

Well, it has been 4 days and it has been tough but I have made it though this far so I have 2 more days I WILL get through them, tomorrow my son has a lacrosse day in tolland and My mother is coming from Arizona on the 21st so Ihave a lot to do to get the house ready so I do not have alot of time to put food in my mouth anyways but I am getting tired of broth and meat. I would love a SF Fudgesicle but got to wait until monday

Hi Barb, You know you can have seafood as well. Be it shrimp, crabmeat, lobster, whatever. They go well with chicken broth. Keep up the good work! Julio
