    I normally have BAD migranes but since I've been working out, eating right and drinking plenty of water I don't get them no where near as often!!!

    You may be getting alittle dehydrated! Try drinking alittle more water or throw in some gatorade....

    Hope this helps!

    Could be lot of things

    dehydration--are you drinking enough water?

    caffeine--have you cut back on caffeine intake?

    sugar--have you cut back on sugar intake sharply?

    carbs--sometimes, decreasing carb intake dramatically can bring on headaches

    I was having those at first.. I wasn't drinking enough water. Make sure you drink all 8 glasses of your water!

    Since I only drink coffee maybe two times a week I realized that the sugar substitute was giving me the dull all day headaches that you explained. I am now in the process of figuring out what doesn't I used my last 2 packets of sweet n low (which definitely is the source of my headaches), but I have a whole box of equal and a whole box of splenda in my pantry to still experiment with.
    Could this be happening to you?

    Artificial sweeteners trigger my migraines (they often give me a stomachache as well). My headaches are also from changes in sleep patterns, lack of water and or food, and hormonal changes.
