optifast

Hi everyone... I'm  6 days into my optifast diet... I have noooooo energy, and am having a hard time keeping my mind off food.... Any advice?

I am also on Optifast - day 6 of 14 before Lapband surgery on Jan.19. I too have no energy and I'm freezing cold all the time (I was always too hot before!). Hunger isn't as bad as these other symptoms, but it is a struggle. I am eating diet jello or cucumber slices or drinking clear broth (very low calorie - e.g., 1 g carb, 1 g protien, 0g fat, about 15 cal) when the urge to eat more comes up. I have the most trouble when I'm sitting watching TV so I am trying to keep busy in other ways. Computer surfing, reading books, tidying the house...anything that uses fairly little energy but keeps my mind and hands busy.

I too am on optifast, but only my 2nd day in wow this is hard, i sooo want food all the time lol all i do is play on the computer, clean up the house  stuff to keep my mind off of it which right now doesn't help lol good luck......
Also good luck tomorrow wilv99 with ur surgery  !!!!
