Okay ~ I am on day 2. Yesturday was the pitts energy wise, but today I feel fabulous!! Is that normal? I was prepared to feel like crap for a aweek or so.

Also.. I want to exercise... so should I or should I give my body a break since it is adjusting to this new WOE?

I feel silly asking, but if we dont ask, we won't know.

Welcome Sheila. I too only felt like crap for a day. I think we're the lucky ones.

I'd say go ahead and exercise as long as you're feeling up to it and have the energy.

I've never had the induction flu, I fill with energy right away, too.

We're lucky, I guess. Or we're so happy to be finally doing this for ourselves... who knows, but this woe sure makes me feel better than the high carb days.

you are lucky. I had induction flu for 3 weeks. I didn't feel like doing anything but taking a nap when I got home from work at 6 p.m. However, I was just getting my carbs from salads. Once I added other green leafy veggies I was fine. If you feel like excercising do it.

Exercising increases my energy overall, even if it is draining at the moment.
