Liquid Diet= soooooo tired??

Hi all!

I am on my 3rd day of the liquid diet (10 more to go!). I am following my Dr's instructions to a "T" and although yes I get hunger pains I am not cheating. I just try to preoccupy my mind on something else and chug a bunch of water. But what I am having issues with is being so tired. I slept well last night and am at work so passing out with my head on my desk probably wouldnt be the best idea. I am taking my vitamins. Anyone have any suggestions? Did you get so groggy too?

Thanks for any and all advice.

I don't remember beng sleepy, but I do remember thinking how hard it was....BUT it is SO worth it!  Maybe others have suggestions for the sleepiness?

I was exhausted the first three days...  then it just seemed to get easier.   I took lots of Tylenol the first three days, cause besides being tired, I remember having horrible headaches..  but like I said, I just remember it being the first three days and then things got better.. 

Hang in there, like Erika said..  it is all worth it!!!1

I too have been popping Tylenol for headaches. I know it is all worth it and I am not even close to cheating on the diet. The hunger pains get less and less each day and if I even cheated a little it would be like starting all over from the beginning. NO THANK YOU!

I have lost 4 lbs in 4 days. 4 pounds I wont ever see again :)

Sher, I feel so bad for you. I 'm on my 2nd day of just
protein shakes and I feel like....falling out. I don't see
how they expect you to do that for 14 days? I am
thinking of you.
I was thinking of eating a piece of some kind of meat,
but then I saw your post....I will just fix me another
shake.
I say just " keep your eye on the prize"

Ug...I am so sorry.....I only had to do a 2-day liquid diet & I am in awe of those of you who have to do so many days!!!  It is worth it, though....so, hang in there......xo, Micheala.

I feel for you it is hard! I had to keep telling myself that it would be all over soon and I would be so happy to FINALLY start losing weight. Hang in there, I know you can do it..

Thank goodness my surgeon only had a 2 day liquid diet prior to surgery. I dont think I could have made it for weeks on liquid. Your energy will return once you body adjusts. It is in for a wild ride these next few weeks. Buckle up!
