What am I doing wrong?

[3littlefrogs]

I have been low carbing for a week, but today I have a bad headache, despite drinking lots of water, and I have a really bad taste in my mouth and feel a bit "bilious" as my mum would have said.

Have I cut out too much?

I have been eating mostly salad, fish, chicken, a bit of steak, vegetables, cheese and strawberries.

TIA

Have you been eating lots of fat with all that too? You should be :)

sounds like you have a case of the carb-flu, a few days late. Keep drinking the water and avoiding the carbs (apart from your vegetables & salad) and everything will be fine. A drink of bovril can also help.

Thanks BlackAffronted. I have had olive oil dressing on the salads, some greek feta, mascarpone with the strawberries, not huge quantities, but enough I think. Have also had avocado with the salad, plus eggs.

I am just wondering if my gall bladder might not be tolerating the fat. In which case I am a bit stuck I think.

I have had a lovely goats cheese salad this evening, but I feel a bit bloated now.

I am desperate to lose at least a stone. I managed to lose about 10 lbs last summer, but then went on holiday and put it all back on again.
