Unhappy I feel like crap!!

I'm on day 6 of induction and I feel absolutely HORRIBLE!!! I slept until almost 11 (after going to bed before 11 last night), woke up feeling nauseous and dizzy AND took a two hour nap after forcing myself to eat some scrambled eggs with cheese. What's going on? Please help!!! I cannot survive like this, but I am doing so well on Atkins, I don't want to stop.
Does anyone have an explanation? Thanks!

It is induction flu. Happens to most of us. Just take it easy. Drink your water - it will pass quickly. You are about to transition into ketosis.

Oh. I thought I had that the other day...I had horrible bowel movements that lasted for almost the whole 3rd day. Could it just reappear like that?

Basic Menu:
Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs with cheese (and maybe some bacon if I can force myself to eat it)
Lunch: Spinach and romaine salad with boiled eggs and shredded cheese (full fat caesar dressing)
Dinner: hot wings and spinach

That's what I basically eat... of course there are variations, but I think this is good.
Thanks

Was your diet pre-Atkins full of lots of sugar and carby stuff? If so, it could be your body adjusting.

I felt a little blah my first few days but I eat a wide variety of things (from the Induction list). Don't know if that made a difference.

Yeah, my diet pre-Atkins was full of all that crap, even when I was restricted calorie!!! I feel better now, though, so hopefully everything's run its course.

I sort of went through an induction flu. The thing was I never ate much sugary stuff before. I do remember that in about 3 weeks into an extended induction, I stopped at a Pollo Tropical to pick up eats for my mom. I suddenly realized how great I felt! I'm telling you, I was euphoric. I felt that I was on drugs or something. I did suffer from mental fogginess at first but it subsided after those initial 3 weeks.
