Diets can kill ya !

[peg4x4]

I"ve been watching what I eat-you know,the low sodium,no sugar,high fiber crapola. :x .Well,Fri-Sat-Sun
I got to feeling bad worser/awful/gonna lie down and not get up.. .Mon,no better,so off to Dr.--
Heart jumping like a salmon trying to swim upstream,chest pains,sweating rivers--- sent to ER
Hooked up to monatars--Heart by this time ticking along like a Swiss watch-NOT A BLIP!! :frowns: They took blood samples,left me in the cool exam room-kept offering me blankets-told them I was quite comfortable,even still a bit warm---- Come to find out I was DEHYDRATED,cause of no salt/sugar! :devil2: :???: :roll:
Tole me to drink a quart of Gatoraide,and eat a bag of potato chips. :? .Did,fine now..said sugar was fine,everything fine--Here I thought I was following a good diet and come to find out I'm 'supposed to eat junkfood!!! Live and learn :? :???: :frowns:

i hate to say this but sometimes diets can be bad for you.you proved why because you cut your salt an sugar out.an it messed your system up.im betting you didnt drink enough water during that time.i drink a gal of gatoraid every day to 1.5 days.but then gatorade is all i drink year round.

Glad that is all it was Peg. You need to keep your electrolytes in balance and a lot of diets cut you right off of things your body needs.


Remember everything in moderation.

That's been my suspicion about diets all along. God didn't give us the ability to make twinkies just so we could stare at them.

That's it! No more diets for me.

Glad you're feeling better. That's scary stuff.
