Sounds like detox to me.
It's as if you have a cold and your body is self correcting.
But don't let your guard down.
We aren't there beside you personally to be able to tell.

This isn't much help to you but, it all depends. Everyone has their own unique version. For me it was lethargy. Presumably the gut had to populate itself with new bacteria for digestion as digestion is very dependant on bacteria. That is why people have serious issues after taking antibiotics. The antibiotics (anti biotics means it kills biotics or anything alive)

If you look at the thread list you will find many, many posts that are roughly like yours except a modified version.

It all depends on your body type, previous diet, level of exercise, weight, health, current diet, weather, moon and stars, price of cars and the federal debt. Seriously, who knows, just don't give up faith.

Some people do the toe in the water thing, by gradually backing in, having a bit of raw and then having a bit more. I saw 'Damn the torpedoes' jump in two feet first.
