Sorry to clog up the forum but I just need a bit of reassurance! I am on my 3rd day of 810 (couldn't do SS because of high BMI) and around midway through my first day I noticed that if I turned, I felt quite dizzy. This has become more frequent since then and I'm just a bit concerned as I have read up on it and have only seen posts about people on SS experiencing it and not 810.
I have also read that dehydration and carb withdrawal can cause this but I have been drinking 4L water a day since I started and I had a whole month of being healthy before I started this where I was trying to consume less carbs and the only ones I would have were porridge and quinoa/brown rice. I had a bowl of porridge for breakfast almost daily during this month and am wondering if my body is missing this but if so, would it not wait until a little longer to start missing the carbs? Halfway through my first day of CWP feels very soon. Also I have had chickpeas as part of my meal for the last 2 days and thought that these would contain higher than average carbohydrates so just feeling very confused right now!
My CDC said it would pass, but I just wanted some extra reassurance!
