Phase I night sweats?

  • Hi,

    I'm coming out of lurkdom to introduce myself and ask a question.

    I am on day 11 of Phase I of SBD and it has been going well. I am OP and losing weight (see moderate loss on scale and feel it more in clothes).

    Here's my question: after the initial few days of headaches, I have been feeling pretty good. For a couple nights now, though, I have woken up with night sweats! This is a totally new thing for me, and I am wondering if it could be part of the detox process. I have heard that SBD can have an effect on hormones.

    BTW, I am 38 y.o., so I don't think it could be perimenopause.

    Has anyone experienced or even heard of night sweats as a result of SBD?

    thanks in advance
  • I'm on day 11 of Phase I as well and also had a night sweat last night and once last week. I'm 30 years old so I doubt it has anything to do with perimenopause. I'm curious to see if anyone else has any info because I'd like like to know, too!
  • The first thing I thought when I saw the title of this post was, "How old are you!?"
    Laurel (and Changa!), that sounds vaguely familiar. I think that did happen to me, too. And I don't think it lasted long.
    Anyone else?

    (Laurel, don't rule out perimenopause! I started getting night sweats at 38.)
  • Yep, me too. It happened toward the end of Phase I, for about 3 days I think. Mine was when I would wake up in the morning though. Then it went away.

    I'm ONLY 32.
