This is likely the withdrawal from 'carbs' aka sugar. Getting adequate quantities of electrolytes may help - magnesium, potassium and good old sodium. Along with plenty of water.1

caffeine withdraw can be hell. I go through it when I go through my coffee phases. The headaches can be awful. For me, they don't usually last longer than a week.1

Day 3 no soda thanks for the challenge0

I quit all carbonated beverages on Dec 30, 2016. Around day 45, I starting drinking a Coke Zero. I couldn't even finish it! It tasted bad and I now really don't even want one at all. I had headaches, but they went away after about 10 days. Hang in there, it will go away.1

I went from 8 to 12 cans of Dr. Pepper a day to zero about three years ago. Took me a week and a half to two weeks to get over the headaches and lack of energy from the caffeine withdrawal, but it was worth it. I still have a Dr. Pepper about twice a year, but now they don't taste as good as they used to.0

I gave up all sodas a while ago even though I never really drank a lot. When I gave up sweet iced tea I decided that I just don't need any manufactured beverage of any kind. I carry a Hydroflask with me and fill it with plain old water. Its easy and cheap. Now if I could only give up wine.0

Try drinking green tea. It's caffeinated and it aids in weight loss!0
