Headaches?

I have been working out more days than not, and really watching my caloric intake. I'm accounting for the workouts by trying to include a lot of protein. Could going from 3 cups of coffee a day to 1 or 2 really be causing me to have a headache?
I feel like I'm combating a headache most of my day, even though I'm drinking plenty of water.

    Absolutely! I experienced this quite often after a binge on energy drinks. For me, its all or nothing. I gave them up completely. Water was the obvious choice over energy drinks and headaches. Now I get them after something simple like having a soda +refill at a restaurant. But.... I don't get them using just my pre workout supplements (which contain caffeine) 5 days a week. strange! I just realized this....

    For a short period of time 4-5 months ago I was getting headaches as well.
    Even though I joined MFP in 2009 I did not use it until Aug 2013.
    For me, I believe the headaches were caused by huge changes in my daily diet.
    Hang in there.
