Light Headed a Side Effect??

On my 9th day of the beach and for 2 days now I've been really light headed. Is this a side effect, it's starting to worry me, should I move on to phase 2? If I  move on to the next phase will that ruin the point of the diet?


Thanks

From Dr. A in an interview on Web MD:

Member question: I'm in day four. My main problem is fatigue. What do you suggest for that, or worse, for the shakes?

Agatston: If you are fatigued early in Phase 1, this may be due to a fall in blood sugar. Make sure you are getting enough good carbohydrate in the form of salads and vegetables and that you are getting enough fluids. Usually when there is weakness it resolves in several days and is associated with good weight loss and loss of cravings. It is also helpful to make sure you are snacking in midmorning, midafternoon, and in the evening.

Hi Vanessa, I was light-headed through Phase 1, even though I was doing everything right.
