Liquid diet woes
Day 2. I'm not counting day 1 cause I cheated. I am light headed and dizzy and weak. My doctor's (Dr. Barker) diet consists of 5 high protein slim fasts a day plus sf jello and popsicles. That's it. I never thought I'd see a day where I'd say I'm sick of sweets. Anyway, the dizzy and weak thing....does it go away or am I just going to get worse and worse over the 2 weeks. I am proud of myself for making it through so far without cheating. Oh and wouldn't you know that when I was driving home from getting Nick from preschool that I was behind a Digiorno truck. Nothing like seeing a HUGE pizza to help the mind set. lol

I gained 10 lbs.! Wooohooo!
Hang in there, it does get easier. I am on the same one (surgery next Wednesday!) and I am in the second week. Evenings are hard, and I am sick of sweets too, would kill for something savory. By the second week, your taste buds are numb.... try drinking half your shake every two to three hours to help balance your blood sugar. Good luck, hang on!!

Life could not get any better than this!
I did Dr Barker's diet for 3 weeks pre op and it does get better. make sure you are taking vitamins during this time especially b12. i was feeling tired and wee****il someone suggested a b12 suppliment and after i started taking it i felt better.
