I was a lucky one. The carb withdrawal never gave me a headache, although I do know several who did have that problem. It is always temporary and usually lasts 3-4 days. Perhaps you could schedule beginning your induction on a Friday. By Monday the headache may be gone. Perhaps a day or two vacation could be used to stretch out the weekend untill the symptoms are gone.

Another suggestion is to gradually reduce carbs until you are at a level where you begin to lose. Bypassing induction entirely may be difficult, as this is the phase that helps us to overcome cravings, so maybe you would even want to continue ramping down to induction levels.

Good luck,
Johnie
