Headache & Fatigue

[We3wimps 0]

I am trying to lose the last 3 pounds my insurance requires of me. However, I have an awful headache all the time and no energy. Not to mention how crabby I am. I am doing a liquid diet bc I only have about a week to go. Any advice on whatbI am doing wrong or is this normal?

This could be a combination of sugar and caffeine withdrawal. Also, make sure you are drinking enough Water, as both of those can be symptoms of dehydration. Take Tylenol for your headache, assuming there is no medical reason for you not to take it. Make sure the liquid diet you are doing is giving you enough Protein, that will make you crabby, too.

Good luck.

Thank you. I am only drinking one protien shake and lots of Water and some broth. I will try another protien shake during the day. I appreciate your reply. I am kinda new to all this and trying to figure it all out.
