second day in

[lason]

i finished my first day on atkins yesterday. it seemed like i ate less than i usually do but i stayed pretty full throughout the day. plus i got to eat real food as opposed to that fake diet crap i was used to eating. i did have a killer headache that lasted for hours yesterday. so far i feel fine today. we'll see how today fares.

Re: second day in

Good job making it through the first day. It's always the hardest for some people. Don't forget to drink your water to help with the headaches (and if you do take anything for headaches, I suggest you take it....it'll help, too).

WTG getting through day 1! The headaches should subside within the next day or 2 at the most, I find that if I take a motrin the evening of day 1 I'm usually good to go from there (at least with the killer headaches, I had a little one for a day or so after)

i did drink 5 16.9 oz bottles of water yesterday. i finished 2 of them this morning so far. i took some ibuprofen but it didn't help much. i can feel the onset of a headache similar to how it felt yesterday. i'll have to take something when i get home from work. i was kind of hoping the headache was atkins related so i'd know if i was doing it right.

Re: second day in

A lot of people do report headches when they start induction, so it is not an unusual side effect of removing carbs from your diet!
