I don't know if it's the crazy weather here in NY or if my body is going crazy since I've re-started Atkins. Since Friday, I've been waking up feeling stuffed up with a hoarse voice. I've also been getting really bad headaches, which usually go away by mid-day. Could this be the induction flu? I didn't experience it the last time I did Atkins.

Re: Have I gotten the flu??
The more your body depends on carbs, the more insulin dependant you are, the more likely you are to get flu like symptoms... They should be gone within the first week...F/46/5'2" - 249/198/115

Re: Have I gotten the flu??
Though the headaches might well be 'carb withdrawal' pangs, the stuffed up/sore throat sounds more like real 'flu to me
Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
