Welcome to Low Carb: Very typical reaction if you are going extremely low carb......The next day or so the constipation will set in as well. Possibly try increasing your carbs a little but just make them more complex....Instead of simple sugars. For example "whole grain oatmeal or pasta" instead of "regular oatmeal and white pasta".
