Side effects? What to expect?

I'm just wondering what side effects I can expect if any.

I am a little tired today, my first day.

What else might happen? headaches? What about going ot the bathroom?

Thanks, I'm just trying to be reasonable hear. I have to think cutting myself off from sugar and losing up to 10 pounds in 2 weeks is going to take it's toll to some extent.

I found this wonderful site "MizFrig's Pad" that has tips for beginners.

I am just starting week 2 of phase 1. Yes, I was pretty tired the first few days. I have also been having some major headaches -- though had not previously thought to associate those with the diet. Anyway, I just realized that yesterday and today I have felt GREAT. I really do think it has to do with getting the sugar and refined carbs out of the system. After only one week I have more energy. But, the thing I have noticed the most is that my joints had been very stiff and achey the past several months. They no longer are!

The bonus is that I have lost 5 pounds.
