It could be keto flu: an electrolyte imbalance. Carbs retain water, and when you cut the carbs, your body loses a lot of water weight... And with the weeing, you flush out electrolytes as well. If you think this might be true for you (other symptoms could be fatigue, joint aches etc), try adding in some bone broth, coconut milk or electrolyte supplements. I always have the latter around, just in case. Takes a week or two, three, for your body to find a new equilibrium, but it does pass.Hope you feel better soon!Jo</blockquote>
