On Tuesday, I cut my carb intake to about 75 g. I'm 6'3 196 and usually eat 250-300 carbs a day. I workout hard for an hour (mixed weights/cardio/agility) around 3 times per week and train jiu-jitsu 3-4 times per week for an hour each time.
On Wed, I had 15 carbs and wanted to see how my body would respond if I decided to Keto. I head a mild headache most of the day. Wed. night, I started getting stomach pain that I would liken to cramps in the low center. It feels like I need to go #2 but I don't.
On Thursday, these cramps continued but I would call them annoying and maybe a 3.5 on a 1-10 scale. I ate about 75 carbs this day trying to get back to normal.
Today, I still have these cramps and they went away when I was light jogging/lifting but are back and are annoying. I also had bad neck pain last night and pain behind my right ribs. I equate those to jiu-jitsu though.
Are these normal Keto flu symptoms or worse? I never have stomach pain and I'm likely to go see a doctor this weekend.
