day 3 of pre-op diet

hi ,im into day 3 of the meditrim diet.is it normal to feel so tired and have really bad stomach cramos and bad foul smelling gas.
im just trying to figure this out

It gets easier the 2nd week.  Keep it up!  YOU CAN DO IT!!!  Have you tried the coffee trick with the shakes? What kind of veggies are you eating? 

yes the coffee trick is the only way i can drink the shakes.last night i had steamed broccoli and today i had a little lettuce and tomato with vinager.

i sure hope it gets better.

I found that I'm doing more, so that might be why I'm tired. I'm trying to get everything done before hand. I have had little gas, could be the veggies, so I switched had spagetti squash for the first time with tomato garlic and onion yummy.
Hang in there, step on the scale that should cheer you up

I was very tired during the pre-op. I found that I had a hard time paying attention and I was irritable. I also had to drink alot of water or I would get pains in my kidney area. But it did get better after about day 5.

thanks.i am getting the pain in my kidney.i am glad that it gets better.i am going to have to increase my water intake.thanks

I was drinking about  3 litres per day.

I got stomach cramps if I didn't drink enough water. You have just seriously reduced you caloric intake, so it is normal to feel tired. I also had some gas, not fun.

Just keep at it, it is worth it in the end.

Yep! It's normal. So is the gas unfortunately. It will be over before you know it. Good luck and stay strong you can do this....:) ~Cheryl

thanks everyone.i am going to get through this.
the worst part is that i still have to make real food for my family.it looks soooo good   lol
i have not cheated yet and i hope that it will get better after.my hubby is very understanding and supports me fully.he is happy about the surgery and hopes that this will change the familys eating habits.
