This is my second day on IP and this morning I had such nausea that I had to throw up in the garbage in my office!! Has anyone had this symptom when starting out? My first day I was a bit light headed but not nauseaus.
I had that issue, and barely ate that day. I almost quit IP, but then weighed myself the next morning and I was down 4 lbs. I figured I could deal with it a little longer.
I still can't stand the thought of the IP soups, because that was one of the things that made me sick.
My other symptoms day two were I felt feverish, light headed & crazy tired (kind of like the first trimester of pregnancy tired).
I am on Day 2 and I felt really sick this morning as well.
Of course, it is now 2pm and I've only had 4 cups of water and the strawberry banana IP. I also have some meds because of thyroid and hormones and I have to take those at particular times and that is messing me up.
Yep the first 4 days were pretty awful for me and Ohhhh the things I would've done for a Starbucks Mocha! Hang in there because it truly gets better and eventually you will have so much energy and (at least for me) I have days where I have to remind myself to eat. I never, ever would've thought it possible to not only survive on the amount of calories we get but to feel fantastic while doing so! I still panic when I drink a 'sweet' drink because my brain just can't wrap itself around the idea that I'm not going to become cranky, shaky and nauseous from a blood sugar spike. Instead I get something that tastes great (hate the soups still) which has the right amount of protein to make me feel great! You CAN do this, stay strong.
I am on day 5 and am having a problem eating everything that i am supposed to. Im not cheating not even once! I thought that I was past the nausea then a student got sick right in front of me and I joined her! hahaha I keep waiting for it to get better and I do feel better today than I did days 2-4
I had nausea (and actually puked once) the first couple of weeks and it was because of the supplements. I couldn't have them right after a packet, but needed to wait 30-45 min...

I found it hard to get in all the food too at first. Be sure to use your sea salt and take vitamins with food. Down 30 in 8 weeks. Keep going!

Hang in I felt the same way but it passed. As the days go by it does get better.

Hmm maybe I should do the same. I thought about doing an experiment where I was going to skip a day of taking the cal-mag supplements to see if that was the cause of the nausea and vomiting (twice last week). I had blamed the ground beef and chicken but last night I felt nauseous again and it was after I had taken the cal-mag. I know skipping is a bad idea so it's a good thing I saw this post
Yup, same as the rest. I'm on day 9. Days 1-5 I had pretty consistent nausea and evening headaches. No more nausea or headaches since day 6 or 7. Feel good now!
