I'd Like to Introduce Myself!

Hi!
Today is my first day on SBD and I was doing great until a couple of hours ago...then the headache started! GRRRRR! I hate to whine, but please tell me this won't last long because I seriously need for this to work. I need to lose 100+ pounds and have some major health issues.
Hoping to find lots of support on this board.

I'm glad you've decided to make a change in your diet. The headache is probably from sugar withdrawls. You realize how addicted your body is to it once you take it away. Also, if you consumed caffeine regularly and have quit, that'll do it. Combine to two at the same time...watch out!

It should pass, so hang in there!

Ditto. Speaking from experience, the first 3-4 days were hard. But it did get better each day and pretty soon the cravings will go away and you won't be as hungry anymore. You can do it!

Welcome to South Beach!
