I started back on induction the day after Christmas, and so far I've lost 6.5 lbs. (actually re-lost) Last night I noticed my legs feel all twitchy when I was trying to go to sleep, didn't someone else experience this? I can't find the post that talked about it. Can anyone offer me a suggestion? I thought it was maybe the Calcium/Magnesium thread but I checked fitday and I got 109% of my Calcium and 62% of Magnesium.
I quite often get "restless leg syndrome" but not when I go to bed. It's usually when I'm sitting watching tv. It drives me nuts. I just want to shake them and shake them. I never realized it could be a magnesium deficiency. Thanks for the tip.
I get it all the time, a nasty side effect of PCOS I'm afraid. Somehow it doesn't make it any easier for me to deal with. I agree with the others, mag/calcium supplements should calm that leggy down!
the ususal supp for potassium is during induction is up to 4 tabs daily divided over atleast twice. then you can drop to 1-2 as needed. magnesium also will help substantially with constipation. but try to get a good magnesium or you will not absorb much
