I feel nausiated

I am on the pre-op diet through mmpc. I just started today and I'm trying to stick to the times (about every 3 hrs) but when I get super hungery, I get to the point where I get the chills and feel like I'm going to throw up. Any suggestions? I'm trying to keep my mind off it, but the nausiated feeling is killin' me.

I don't have any suggestions for you.  Just wanted to wish you well and I hope the nausea goes away quickly.  Just remember your end result!  Good luck! Kathy

The first week is the worst.  After that it gets easier.

What I usually did was a pudding first thing in the morning.  When I got to work, instead of my coffee, I would have a cappuchino.  About 10:30, I would have a protein bar.  For lunch, I would usually do two packets of soup.  at my afternnon break (3:45), I would do another pudding (or jello).  Then I would do a two point packet for supper and then a pudding or jello for dinner.   Another thing I would do - which helped keep me full for longer is mix 1 box of sugar free Jell-0 (that you buy at the grocery store) with 1 packet of the fruit juice and eat the whole thing.  That really helped with the hunger between meals.  I could do that the first week, but week two - forget that.  I would end up just drinking the fruit drink. Good luck - let me know how you come out.  I am local two - Cutlerville, MI

The key is to keep eating about every 3 hours.  That way, you have something to look forward to and keep your stomach full.  Also, drink lots of water and sugar free drinks like Crystal Light. Good luck to you!  It will get much easier in the next week. Jenn

Sorry you are feeling sick. Hopefully it gets better. I just felt very full the whole time I was on the pre-op diet. Good luck to you. Lynn
