2nd day on TO-questions

  • Hey everyone, I have a question did anyone experiences bad headaches doing the TO, I started yesterday and when I went to bed had a horrible headache and woke up with it this morning. Just wondering if this is common.
    Also I weigh in today at 4:45 wish me luck.
  • I would say that yes, it is normal - it is the sugar, carb, and caffeine withdrawal. Don't worry - it does go away.

    GOOD LUCK!!!!
  • Good luck at WI today! And if it's any consolation, I had a headache for about 7-9 days when I started (I forget now, but it was at least a week) due to the caffeine withdrawal. It does go away and it will get better!
  • I also had headaches...more when I was drinking the juice and a few days later but no headaches anymore for me...but I haven't done the juice again.
    Don't worry it's normal!!!!!!!!!
  • I was bad for about 4 weeks with the caffiene and sugar withdrawl. It just showed me how bad my eating habits were before I started program. Your body adjusts--eventually.

    It's just a matter of sticking with it you'll see results.
  • Thanks everyone, I am actually feeling alot better today the migrane is gone. Had my 1st weight in yesterday and I lost 4lbs. Wanted to celebrate by going to Applesbees for a triple brownie melt down, but I drove past it like a good girl
  • Phoebe - One of the guys in my class (culinary school) works as a line cook at Applebees. Believe me, you don't want anything there.

    Disclaimer - Not that it's bad, but it's just that they prep and re-heat a lot of things in ways that I'd rather not have done. For example, if you order pasta, it's pre-cooked and put into a baggie. When you order it they add oil to it (YES, OIL) and microwave it to heat it up. Tell me why they can't keep a pot of hot water on the stove and dunk the individual portion in the water in a basket for 90 seconds like a normal place? Who wants oiled/microwaved food? Sorry, I digress. Just save your splurge for a place where it is made by a real chef with love, not a chain where it was made in Kansas (or wherever), frozen for three months and shipped.
  • Ewwww on Applebees. DH works for our county and one of his friends is a health inspector - he lets us know where NOT to eat..... yuk.
  • Yea that doesn't sound very appealing anymore. Thanks for info
