    Yup! It's called DETOXING :) It should subside within a week or so.

    are you getting enough water and getting the right amount of calories inside you?

    I did at the beginning too. You need to make sure you are eating a balanced diet and getting enough Protien and water. The headaches could be caffiene withdrawal, dehydration and/or low blood sugar. Make sure you are getting enough nutrition. It could also be that you are getting ready for that TOM. I started mine at the end of week one and after that I felt much better.
    The other thing to watch with the headaches is the artificial sweeteners. If you are not used to them they can cause headaches and you may have a sensitivity to them.
  • I am a fan of South Beach Diet. Everytime I start the 14 day phase 1, I feel that way for the first 4 days. You should start to even out soon. Good luck and congrats for lasting through it.
