Help! with Headaches

[alarionov]

Ok so, this is my second week of LC and all of the sudden I am getting painful headaches now, this is the second day. I drink min. 100 OZ of water, I still drink my coffee as usual, and like I said this is my second week so I dont believe it is Induction Flu.

Any advice would help Thanks

IMHO - Pretty much anything wierd that happens to you in the first month - I consider withdraw symptoms. You are only in your second week - so I would bet withdraw.

Are you taking potassium and magnesium?

Also, you may have a virus. Sometimes a headache is all I get.

Take some pain reliever.

Thanks for the info.

Did you change anything else from week one to week two? Artificial sweeteners and sugar alcohols are one thing that comes to mind. Not sure of others. Outside temperature can do it to me.

Look for what else changed.

The same all the way. I do notice that the headaches come in the afternoon.

Make sure you're hydrated. It's easy to forget this time of year.

But headaches are common in the first few days of a new diet, including lowfat and low calorie regimes.

I drink quite a bit of water, they are getting better though not going away
