    Good and Bad

    I weighed myself finally, and I have lost 15lbs. in the first 2 weeks! YAY ME!

    But I have a problem. These past two weeks, I have been extremely nauseous all the time. The only thing that keeps me from 'praying to the porcelain goddess' is water. I have to drink it constantly, or my stomach starts hurting, and I get very sick. Is this happening to anyone else? I thought I was done with the induction flu, but the nausea won't go away.

    HELP!!

    Re: Good and Bad

    I'm not a medical doctor, but consider taking maybe 1/4 teaspoon of bicarb in half a glass of water. Maybe you are suffering from acid reflux. Don't over do it! The sodium in bicarb can raise your blood pressure. If the nausea / pain continues I'd suggest to visit your doctor. Be prudent. It takes many years to pack on the pounds, and quite a long time to drop the weight.

      I have tried everything. I am sick till my hunger overrides the nausea. I noticed it at the beginning, but now it seems to be getting worse. I am so happy for my weight loss, but if this continues, I may have to stop. My tummy soooo wants some Campbells Chicken Noodle Soup!

        Have you posted any menus for people to look at to get some ideas what may be going on?

          You are hungry? Are you not eating?
          Have you thought of making egg drop soup?

            I am eating normal amounts. It's the time between meals that I am suffering the nausea...and now stomach pain. I seriously don't think I could eat an egg or meat right now to save my life. I will be talking to the doctor tomorrow about this.

            Thank you everyone for your help.

              That is a good idea to see a doctor about it. Certainly is not normal.

                I was having a similar issue, but actually throwing up! My potassium levels were way too low. Once I fixed this, I never had another problem.

                  Ditto on that. I was feeling very nauseous and starting taking potassium - problem solved! What supplements are you taking?
