Hi, Sunita!
How is your salt intake? We lose lots of salt on low carb, and don't store it nearly as efficiently as with carbs, so, despite everything you read about the evils of salt, you actually need MORE, especially when you are washing out the extra water in the first couple of weeks.
You can drink bone broth that's salty, or add more than you are used to to everything.
My issue with low salt was terrible leg cramps, so, till I got used to the levels, I would put a half teaspoon in a big glass of water and drink it every morning.
