Day 2 on pre-op diet
I was told to expect to feel a little sick, headachey and weak the first few days, but would feel much better after the 4th or 5th day. What you're feeling is normal, but it will be better soon.

It will get easier, until it starts getting harder again. I was on clear liquids for two weeks prior and three after. Wow that was a challenge towards the end! But entirely do-able.
