Conclusion You might experience sudden muscle weakness during the first few days. This is because you will not be consuming any protein during this time. Exercise can help to make the muscles feel stronger (and they will begin to feel strong again when protein is introduced later on in the week). Another side effect is dehydration and incessant thirst. You can prevent this by increasing your intake of water. On the GM plan, you are encouraged to drink as much water as you possibly can. Feel free to increase the amount of water until you are satisfied. You may also experience headaches initially. These will disappear once your body gets used to this new way of eating. Drinking a lot of water and engaging in regular exercise will also help alleviate these headaches.
