This is ONLY my 2nd day on atkins and I woke up this morning and felt like crap kinda just icky....would that have anything to do with the new way of eating or are they completely unrelated? please help!!
It has everything to do with the new way of eating, but it won't last. You've got what we call the induction flu. Your body is switching over from carb burning to fat burning mode. It causes you to be headachy, tired, and generally yucky for a few days. Just get through it. After it's done you'll find you have more energy and feel better than before you started Atkins. The induction flu can last up to a week, but usually only a few days. Also, exercise can help get you out of it. Make sure you're drinking your water too. Good luck, you're okay. You're body is getting ready to drop those pounds!!!
