The weakness in your legs will pass somewhere between three and five weeks - it was right at four weeks for me. And, if human beings have water, they can live without food at all for months. Yes, your body's in starvation mode--but it will soon adjust. It took me almost three months to get my intake over 500-600 calories a day... I run about 800 now.
And, if I remember right, weren't you the one who was wondering if your surgery had worked? Elmo knows it worked! Matilda reminded me again last night...
