Well, think of it this way - well, at least you have the DIET to blame it on!! LOL See, that's a good thing!! LOL A lot of folks have a kind of " withdrawal " to carbs, and if they are tossing the coffee out of their diet too, they get a double whammy, and get caffeine headaches too. Try Advil and lots of water. For me, I didn't really have a major carb reaction, but I did have massive headaches from the caffeine. So, know what? I started drinking coffee again! LOL I get migraines, anyway, and the caffeine actually HELPS keep them away, and it helps my asthma too. ) please tell me this won't >last a long time... Nahhh, if you can get through the first week, you're golden. Usually it's only a few days. Many folks also realize they are having less heartburn and gas and stuff like that. Usually the energy level goes up. I know I don't have that major 2 pm slump-I-need-a-nap feeling anymore since I gave up high starch lunches!! > >BAD MOMMY~ You are NOTTTTTT - you are a GOOD Mommy!!! You are trying to do something for yourself that will make you healthier and let you live long enough to see your four wonderful children grow up to love, laugh and be happy!!!!!! ) a.k.a. ~ Natty's mommy lanat@... http://www.javanet.com/~lanat/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
