    have you suddenly starting eating healthier? You're body might be going through withdrawls? Also do you eat throughout the day? When I struggle a lot with headaches and migraines and when I first started trying to lose weight I had to switch to 5 small meals a day instead of 3 meals and snacks because my body couldn't handle it. Make sure you're getting your snacks in regularly, make sure you're also meeting your nutritional needs and not just your calorie goals, and make sure that you're also eating your exercise calories and see if that helps any. How's your water intake?

    What is your calorie limit? You may have them set too low. Sometimes you need to play around with them.

    I would keep track of your water intake, I know I get headaches from lack of water b/c I get dehydrated. Also, try eating some fruit, I find that helps me too b/c of the water and sugar content. Good luck!

    :drinker: If you cut out soda or Starbucks, you may have cut out all your caffeine. That will give you a horrendous headache. The only cure (that I am aware of) is having a cup of coffee or a soda.

    Sorry you are not feeling well. Hopefully it will pass quickly.
