I ate a total of almost 1800 calories today and burned about 800 from walking around the whole day, but now I have a bad headache. Did I eat too little for the amount of exercise I did or is it probably from something else?

    Bump to know the answer too.

    It could be anything :-) Perhaps dehydration, hypoglycaemia, stress headache (muscles in your neck getting tight holding your head in position while you bob about all day), caffeine withdrawal,blood pressure . Could be a cold or virus as well :-) good luck though, hope it goes away soon

    How's your water intake?
    Could be electrolytes - try a bouillon drink.

    This symptom could be the result if a lot of things. 1000 cal intake could be an issue, or water intake.
