Hello all. Just started day 3. Experiencing headaches. Is this normal? I thought they would have subsided by now. By the way, I'm eating enough food, drinking lots of water, getting in my veggies, checking food labels for hidden sugars, etc. When will the headaches subside?

Re: Headache...is this normal?
Its very normal, it can effect a lot of people starting out on Atkins, but not necessarily everyone.
Within a couple of days you will be back to normal again. Just increase your water intake for a few more days and then you will feel fine.

It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!
I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

Oh and take something for the headache. It's totally normal, it's your body detoxing off the sugar. Give it a couple days and you're going to feel great~Joy

I had headaches for a couple of weeks. NOW I get headaches if I eat carb-y things. It's not good for ya. The headaches are normal.

Re: Headache...is this normal?
Thanks everyone! Another question now....I've increased my water intake and now I am so bloated! My stomach looks much bigger than it did before Atkins! Is that normal, too?
Took a few Motrin (thanks Joy) and I'm feeling better. Ate some cream cheese with Splenda (yum) and laid down for a while. All of your stats (Rich, Joy and Yuna) look great and that is VERY encouraging to me. Thanks for your prompt replies!"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." (Phillipians 4:13)

Re: Headache...is this normal?
Okay, Rae this may seem personal, but is TOM due? That could be the cause of bloat and headaches? It certainly is for me.
Also watch your salt.Erin

Re: Headache...is this normal?
Yep, Erin hit the nail on the head re: bloatiness....and the headache too. You're getting hit with a double whammy for this week coming up...just stick through it and you'll be OH SO MUCH better off...believe me...when it passes, you'll feel better than you have in a looong time.~Joy
