Headaches when cutting?

**lordworm88** · 08-23-2011, 07:57 PM

Does anyone get headaches when running a low carb cutting diet? Sometimes I get really annoying headaches...today for example my head hurt a lot and I missed going to the gym. Whenever I do a normal carb diet or a high carb bulk diet I'm fine, but now that I'm cutting I get headaches when I go for long periods of time with low carbs.

I don't. How much water are you drinking?

No never.. Once I keep hydrated and take my vitamins low Carb diets are fine.

I get headaches on keto diets or if my calories are ridiculously low like under 2k.

Large amounts of water intake doesn't help for either. It's weird b/c other than this I NEVER get headaches.

I drink tons of water. I drink about a gallon a day. It doesn't happen everyday but it only happens when I get low carbs. But my carbs aren't keto low, I get around 100-130 a day. And I'm not taking anything else.
