Hi there!
Yes, you're right, you were probably having headaches from both carb and caffeine withdrawal. You can help to make them more tolerable by drinking MORE water, taking tylenol or advil, and weaning off of caffeine rather than going cold turkey. Even so, you may have the headaches for 3-4 days. Try to keep in mind that you're doing something GOOD for yourself to help your motivation to hang in there.
You're also right about the preparation issue.... after a year of LCing, I can tell you that this is the most important factor in staying on track. It's very difficult to just "wing it"....especially through induction. I'd suggest visiting the LC Kitchen forum and find yourself some good, freezable casserole type recipes that you can zap for breakfast or lunch. Crustless Pizza or Deep Dish Pizza Quiche are 2 that come to mind.
Good luck!!
