I walk a ton given my occupation but come to think of it yesterday afternoon I had a meeting at the kid's school and ended up walking home. I wonder if I walked a bot too fast for my body's liking.

it's also because you are detoxing from carbs.... and losing electrolites...and some salt to your water... it will help.. You can also add benefibre to the shakes... that will give you extra fibre and help you keep regular in the bathroom.

Totally agree about the salt! I had horrible leg cramps after surgery and it was caused by a sodium deficiency. Just a little bit of salt made a huge difference for me - just be careful if you have high blood pressure. I hope you feel better soon!

I've been adding the benefibre since shake 1 just to prevent any issues.
