    Is it strange if I don't have any withdrawal symptoms?

    I'm at the end of day three into induction and was eating *really* badly leading up to my start. But other than a little extra fatigue, I haven't had headaches, nausea, or any other carb withdrawal symptoms. Based on the lovely taste in my mouth, I was into ketosis less than 48 hours from starting and I just feel really good. I mean, I'm not complaining or anything, not like I *want* headaches. But is it odd to not have any symptoms detoxing from carbs?

      JM,

      Just thank your lucky stars you are one of the few who does not suffer from a bad case of induction flu! Good for you!

            Hey JM, I didn't have any major induction flu systems either. We should consider ourselves lucky!

              I had it something fierce the first time around. The second time, nothing! I've no explanation, but I agree with the others -- just be thankful!
