    got migraine first day

    Hello All,
    Started my first atkins journey yesterday, and I got a terrible migraine . Has anyone else had this experience?? I drank at least 10 cups of water, did my excercises, and ate whenever I was hungry. This is VERY discouraging!! Does anyone have any suggestions, or opinions? I would appreciate all advice. So far today feel good, though.
    Thanks,
    Sarah

    This too shall pass. If you normally drank alot of caffeine and took in alot of sugar and have now done away with them all in one day, you are certainly going to have headaches. But they will get better - give it a week max.

      I had a headache for two days that would not stop even after taking meds. I know mine was the caffeine withdrawal, on the third day I woke up fine and not missed the caffeine at all. Hang in there it will get better.

        Totally hang in there and don't be discouraged! I had a lingering headache for a few days with bouts of heavy migraine action, as well as the Induction Flu on day 3. It will pass and you will find yourself with more energy that you know what to do with!

        Good luck!

          Its okay! It will be gone soon. I suffered headaches and sleepiness the first few days, day 4 I was zooming all around.

          Hang in there.

            Which is worse: a headache or being fat? I think you'll live.

              I had a 3 day migraine when I started, but since then have gone from2-3 per week to NONE. I have not had ONE migraine since I started Atkins. It is like being released from ****! Stick with it! HINT: A real coffee may help for a couple of hours relief.

                  The induction flu gets to the best of us. The best thing you can do is eat right and exercise. You are going to have headaches regardless for the first couple days, but if you stick with it, they will pass and you will have lost acouple pounds! Believe me, in a few weeks, and 10 pounds down, you won't even remember you had a headache. Keep your eyes on the goal!
                  Best Wishes!
