Hi, New Here.... Just begining the low carb diet to shrink my liver. My question is about side effects of the diet. I have been on the diet for 6 days, did not really have to start until next wednesday, jan. 28, but wanted to jumpstart. biggest mistake I could have made. I find myself hungry right after eating, headaches, now having muscle cramps in left leg and pain in left side. Im stiff now and ache in my joints all the time. Could any of this come from the diet. I am 57 y.o 5'2" and weigh 254 lbs.
I can only have 20 carbs per day. Not sure if I will be able to continue until Feb 11. A friend stated I probably started to early, Im afraid if I stop now, I want be able to start it again without cheating. So far, Ive tried to do everything according to the Nut instructions. Have anybody else gone through this.
Im so excited about finding this board. Thanks for your advice
