Feeling sick
| Fri, 04-23-2004 - 10:30am |
I'm on Day 5 and have followed P1 to the letter. I'm dealing with constiptation and general ickiness. The book said the first few days would be like this, but the food-revulsion started yesterday, day 4. I just cannot eat. I underate terribly yesterday (no breakfast, few bites of lunch, no snacks, okay dinner) and today I couldn't face eating at all. I feel HUGELY fat and have no idea why (maybe all those fiber pills) but I've been drinking my usual TONS of water, well over any guidelines. I think I may visit Miss Correctol over the weekend, but I want to know if anyone else has dealt/is dealing with this.
My pilates trainer said this was a wonderful plan so I tried it, but I feel like I can't stay feeling like this much longer.
Thanks for any advice.

No breakfast
No snack
Lunch: About 10 bites of a huge salad with tuna and bean sprouts and romaine
Snack: A small baggie of pistachios, 25-30
Dinner: A couple of eggs cooked in Smart Balance, with a little cheese and Canadian Bacon, and a bit of cottage cheese
Snack: Ricotta Creme
Today I've not had breakfast or snack. I brought some turkey chili to the office for lunch, and I will make myself eat it whether or not I want it.
Thanks for your help.
Hang in there!
I'm actually feeling a little bit better this afternoon. I had a cup of turkey chili and it seems to be sitting okay. I may just have a little egg and salad burnout. I need to try new things this weekend, I think.
Let me know how you're doing!
I can't tell from your menu (since it's your recent reduced eating menu) what might be causing your bloating/discomfort.

I know you've heard it before but skipping breakfast could be a big problem, especially if you are working out. Before considering giving up totally, try having an apple for breakfast with a tbsp. of peanut butter. The apple will give you the much needed fibre and the peanut butter will give you a bit of protein. I liken it to the guy who wouldn't give up his bowl of ice cream, but stuck faithfully to the rest of the program and lost weight!
Just a thought.
Good luck.
