day 3 of 5pt and I feel....
tired, drained and I have a headache Is this normal? I have been eating pretty good today. I made a recipe from the 5dpt website and it is pretty good. but I was wondering if this headache is normal because of the carb withdrawal? I read that the headache normally happens on day two. On day two, I was starving like marvin..... It was crazy....
I Won't Complain! I've had good days, I've had bad days. All of my good days out weigh my bad days, I WON'T COMPLAIN..... Kimberleece
Actually I felt really good by the 3rd day. It was late day 1 and beginning of day 2 that I felt my worse. I had headaches day 1 & 2 also. But I am sure it effects everyone differently. I am sure it is very normal. It prob is carb withdrawal. I did take something and it went away pretty quickly. Great making it to day 3! Good Luck

The headache is totally normal & is a symptom of withdrawl.
My headache ended w/ the passing of day 2. So if yours is hanging around, make sure you:
1) take something for it (no need to suffer)
2) are getting enough water
3) are packing in as much PROTEIN as possible. I went up as far as 100grms of protein.
The more protein shakes = the less hungry you are & the more energy you have.
I cant say that ive been "zipping around the office like a mad woman" but im not falling asleep on the key board either.
Day 2 was really tough for me as well. i was STARVING at home (after work but before dinner) & didnt know what to do to avoid eating real food.
Keep the faith, stay strong & determined. YOU CAN DO THIS!!
The Will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.
