Day 4 - soooo sick

[suzicrow]

So I'm on day 4 of induction and have been feeling energy-less, nauseous, for the last two days. How long does this last? I'm hungry but the smell of eggs makes me want to throw up and I have cotton mouth. Ewww How long does this part last?

I am on day 5 and I have not felt like that yet. You need to make sure you are eating enough calories, and your vegtables. I tried atkins a few years back and failed, I gave up day 3 because I felt like you do. But the veg really does help.

I think what may help is if you post what you have eaten in a day and people can see where you are going right or wrong.

I was just about to ask the same thing. Induction flu is no fun, but I don't remember nausea. Would you mind posting an idea of what you eat in a day?

I guess it would help to post what I've eaten.

Yesterday:

Breakfast: omelette with 1 slice of bacon, onion, brocolli, peppers, and feta cheese and water
2 sips of coffee, made me want to throw up

Snack: 1 slice of bacon and atkins bar, water

Lunch: salad with cucumber, celery, ranch, water

Dinner: salad greens with celery, and hamburger patty cut up, caesar dressing and water

Today:
Breakfast: 2 slices of bacon (couldn't stomach eggs)

Snack: atkins vanilla shake

Lunch: planning on lunch meat & cheese rolls and celery sticks

Dinner: planning on tuna with mayo, celery, and green peppers

Hello just looked at your menu and wanted to say that atkins bars and shakes are not allowed on induction. If anything stop eating those, and that might help a little. Good luck on your journey.
