Hey Bev,

I think I could have afforded the weight loss, I was overweight a bit to begin with, and now I'm just at the low end of "normal" for my weight. It's just how fast it happened. I've lost it all in about 2 1/2 months, so I feel almost constantly dizzy and crummy. And because my diet has been sooo bad (just a little bread, rice, teas, not much else) I was just concerned that my electrolytes may already be off kilter.

What about Gatorade? I know generally it's an IBS no-no, but my doc's nurse highly recommended it for me because of the electrolyte problem, so I'm wondering if it would be ok to drink just for the prep. I'd drink it in small amounts mixed with a lot of water, and I have pedialyte too, but I don't like the taste too much.

Thanks again to everyone for all your encouragement!
Kelly
