    Is this normal?!?!

    Lately I have been noticing that I have been somewhat dizzy,a little nausea and hyper and sometimes even a little shakey. I am REALLY thirsty and mouth is DRY! Is this symptoms of ketosis or should I worry?

        When I'm in ketosis I always have a dry mouth and am thirsty pretty much. Before I started back to low carbing I would experience the res of your symptoms, but that's from blood sugar imbalances according to the book. Are you spacing out your veggies, being sure to eat a balanced meal with fats at least once every 6 hours, and getting your water?

          Sounds like deep ketosis, make sure you are eating enough and having enough water!

              Eat more fat. Nothing satisfies like fat.

                Are you eating enough carbs? The nausea, dizzyness, and shakey usually comes to me if my bloodsugar drops. If I get these symptoms, it normallly means I'm not eating enough carbs to keep stabilized.

                I get really thristy when I drink a lot of water. It seems the more I drink, the more my body wants. I hear this quite often from others who are also drinking a lot of water. And I do tend to get dry mouthed.

                If these symptoms persist, then checking with your Dr. can't hurt. Chances are it's nothing to worry about, but when it doubt..give the Dr. a call.
