  • Just started and have a major migrane.

    I started yesterday and I have had a huge migrane since last night. Probably because I went from major carbs to hardly any...anyone else feel like this during the first few days of induction? Last time I did Induction (before I got pregnant) I didn't feel like this, but that's because I don't think I ate THAT much before I turned to atkins WOL.

    I just feel like this migrane will never go away.

    I'm sorry your head hurts - but it's very typical of starting Induction. You're likely going to be sapped of energy for a few days too.

    I know it sounds counter-intuitive, but this is a GOOD thing. It means your body is detoxing, and you're suffering the symptoms as a result. Hang in there. Drink plenty of water. Take some tylenol. Take your supplements. Try to get some rest.

    It'll go away. I promise you.

        Mine lasted 4 days. This is part of induction flu. Hang in there and it'll be gone before you know it.

          You can definitely take something for the pain. Don't feel like you have to tough it out. Hang in there.

            Sorry you aren't feeling well. I also had a terrible headache and actually felt nauseated. I drank 2 huge glasses of water and immediately felt better! Give it a try.

              I remember last time that immediately I had so much energy and expected that thsi time, but I gained 79 pounds during my pregnancy ate SO much more during and after my pregnancy, and this time is A LOT different than last time I did this, so I expect it to be slightly different. Thanks guys!
