How long have you been lo-carbing? If you have only been on the plan for the 4 days, then you're just feeling nasty because your body is 'detoxing' from all the carbs. I felt nasty for the first week that I was on Atkins--- headache, nauseated, diarrhea, tired, etc., but it all vanished (literally) on the 7th day. I picked up my gym routine again and have been trucking along ever since!

If you have been lo-carbing for a while, then you may want to evaluate your plan--- water intake, carb/fat/protein ratios, vitamins, etc.

Granted, I'm not an expert, but I'd hate to see you repeat the detoxing again if it is unnecessary.

Best of luck and happy LCing!
