Headaches
 

Okay, dumb question....has anyone done p1 and NOT had headaches? The first time I didn't and it's 3p on day 2 this time and I still don't. It's making wonder if I'm doing something wrong or maybe I'm just lucky.

I never had them.

I didn't have headaches either.

For me it was just a feeling of having somthing like the flu. Tired and ache but no upset stomach or anything like that.

It lasted about 3-5 days the first time and nothing the second time. Just started the third time today and so far nothing other than many bathroom trips.

What am I missing? What is 3p? or 1p?

37 minutes exercise today

I never got headaches and feel just fine.
I have no idea what "3p" is unless she means 3 pounds or three trips to the bathroom.

I think 3 pm

Must be lower Michigan-speak! :lol:

Of course that's what she meant. Silly Ruthie! And you are the Typo Queen!"

That's my evil twin Ruthless. She always talks in italics and is really mean to me.

lol..U are crazy...and we thought it was just mamacita!!!

I am on the 2nd day and got a headache yesterday - but probably because I started my period today LOL so I dont think it has anything to do with being on phase 1.

I have a theory: if you have been eating sugar and cut it out for Phase I, you may get headaches. However, if you've been eating other carbs, you are usually OK.
I wonder if it's true.

Lordy, you people are off you're rockers today! LOL!

Yep, Kyemom is right...3 p.m. Silly Ruthie, 3 pees?

Okay, I'm a sugar addict and I've never had the headache in Phase I. I usually start feeling much better after I start Phase I; I have the cravings for awhile but I have more energy. I think I start feeling better because instead of trying to starve myself so I can keep the sugar in my diet and the weight off, I actually eat. I know :doh:

I didn't have headaches, just the achy feeling, which went away when I started eating lots of BEANS.

I HAD HEADACHES!!! AND I was someone that would drink beer & eat doughnuts and candy bars & fast food & NEVER drank water....and A LOT of my unwanted weight is in my middle!

I had headaches, but mine didn't start until the 2nd or 3rd day. It was one big, long headache really - so headache, not headaches. It lasted for a few days - I think 3-4. I seem to recall it cleared up around the end of week 1. I'd cut way back on carbs before I actually started, so I don't think it was anything to do with that. I expect it has to do with an individual's metabolism more than anything. But then, what do I know? ;)
