Hi there This is my first week started Monday morning. Have felt great until today. I have had a headache all day i feel tired and weak trying to find a way to get the kids to think it would be great to go to bed right now but its only 4pm My question is..I think this is normal I am assuming this is the ketosis thing i have seen on the board? But I also know I drank coke all day long and ate rice everyday so I could be in caffeine/carb withdrawl??I have stayed strict to protocol and have felt great until today?? And I would appreciate any advice about the length of round to do I would like to lose about 25 lbs so im thinking a 31 day round? Should I skip an injection day each week or do you think i could just go ahead and inject for the 29 days?? Thanks any help appreciated!

Is there anyone that can answer this?
1. Does this feeling of horribleness pass soon or does it mean something?
2. Can i take the shot for 30 days straight or do I have to skip a day not sure since im not doing 43 day phase?
Im doing 150 sub q shots since its subq should i up it a little or is this normal first week?
Thank you Im excited to be on this journey but wow I feel like crap!!

It's normal to feel that way in the first week. It will pass. I would skip a day a week because you may need to full 40 days. Most people lose 25 pounds in 40 days so I would plan on it.

Thank you for the advice! I will plan on skipping a day so I can go the 40 instead. Do you know if that means im in ketosis or just rehabing from all the sugar? Thanks again I appreciate it!

You're probably detoxing. It happens to most of us on our first round during that first week. Hang in there! Take ibuprofen for your headache. It will pass.

Thanks again I thought i couldnt take ibuprofen so I am so happy that I can hopefully it passes fast! I was actually impressed how "easy" the first 4 days were. Well NOT easy but much better than I was expecting! I havent been hungry really hardest part really is no coca cola! Then today feels like a mac truck hit me. I was actually worried about not taking IB for cramps when TOM comes so thank you thank you

The headache is from cutting out your cola cold turkey, I bet. Do you like coffee? You might have some if you do.

Not a coffee drinker I wish I was! Luckily Ice tea has caffeine so I have been having 1 ice tea every day and sticking to water. I actually expected a headache from day 1 because I drank so much of it. I guess the wierdest part for me is I am sooo tired body hurts i feel sooo blah probably in sugar withdrawl my body just wants to crash lol Hopefully it only last a day( fingers crossed)
