Headaches?

jlm1182

Anyone else get frequent headaches? Since starting CR I've been having them. At first I thought it might be low blood sugar so I starting checking when I get them and its within normal range. (usually around 96) Someone suggested dehydration but I drink water all throughout the day. I'm at a loss.

I had a headache each night for about 5 days. My husband is still having them. We're guessing it's from the calorie reduction or maybe the body detoxing. Hope they get better soon

Very common the first couple weeks of CR and cleaner eating. You will feel better.

I recently discovered that splenda gives me headaches. If you have been using it in your diet, you might try going without it for a couple of days.
Good luck!

Well friend, if you're reducing calories, you're prob taking in less crap food. Headaches is the first sign of withdrawl. Fight it. It will get better.

I am so glad you asked this.

I have had an awful headache all day today. I actually bought a Mountain Dew (which I haven't had in about two weeks) to raise my blood sugar and give me some caffeine. I regret doing it but at the time it seemed like the best answer. I still have the headache but the responses to this thread make sense.

Hi, I got a few the first couple of days. Some suggested Breathing techniques while excersising. Hope you feel better.
