    In the past, I found when following South Beach - where no fruit, bread, even whole wheat - was allowed the first two weeks, that I had severe headaches b/c I was addicted to sugar, apparently. When I cut it out (as much as I could), the result was headaches and dizziness. Showed me the level of my addiction to sugar!!

    I actually have a head ache too. I am already on my 7th glass of 8 ounces of water, hoping that it will eliminate the head ache. That and ibuprofen are doing the trick, slowly.

    (I'm a soccer mom too!)
  • Yep! sugar and carbs do both when you restrict them from your diet drastically. Keep taking the ibuprofen. Once you get over the addiction the headaches will go away in a few days. I am a soccer mom of 2. My oldest is trying out for the highschool soccer team this year!

    I have realized by joining this sight my water intake is very low. Yikes ! I haven't had water all day- I better get a drinking! :)
