[JakeySnakey]

how am i going to make it through the day?? i woke up feeling utterly EXHAUSTED this morning with a wicked headache. i've got a 14 hour shift ahead of me.

just need some tlc and support from you guys - please!

i've just gotta make it through the flu and i have a good feeling about tomorrow. im hoping i wake up feeling amazing...it will either be to morrow or the next day.

anyone else in my position?

First of all, eat something. It will give you energy. Something hot, something delicious. Like a big hot portion of scrambled eggs with bacon and cheese and a salad. Or some hamburger buns with legumes, mayonnaise and mustard. Drink something hot like a nice coffee with cream to keep you awake.
But 14 hours shifts are too long, tell your boss he's crazy!

Sending lots of tlc your way! You are doing great, keep it up!

Aww I know exactly how you feel right now. You know whats great? I bought, I think in whole foods, this tea...its like a herbal tea made by the japanese (?) and it actally makes you feel much better. So if your near whole foods be sure to pick up some. It taste fine just the way it is but if anything you can add some sweetner and itll be all good =]

i think so. i actually feel really nauseous, im going to have to force myself to eat lunch soon. i brought a salad so hopefully the carbs in that will make me feel a little better.

wow i never felt this nauseous the first time i did atkins!

Jake...It is an eye opener that the foods you were eating were actually affecting your body so much that just by cutting them out they can cause such a reaction...isn't it? We as a society have mindlessly been poisioning our bodies. You can make it through this!! And you will feel better. Stay strong!
