Went from 179lbs to 132lbs and I'm 6ft smile

Still got another 40lbs to lose!
Wait, what?? Please tell me you mean kg
Gotta be kg, that's hospitalisation territory if it's pounds.
lol it was pounds. 279lbs on 22nd February, and 132lbs end of May!
You are now 132 lb, about 9 and a half stone, yes?
And you want to lose another 40 more, putting you at 6ft and 6 and a half stone?

Either you've got your maths or typing wrong, or you've got a much bigger problem than a persistent headache. Professional cyclists, who are the leanest bunch of fit and well people you'll ever encounter, range at 6ft between around 85 kg (Marcel Kittel, world class sprinter, muscles are heavy) down to about 65 kg (Chris Froome and his ilk).

92 lbs would be 40 kg, and a BMI that would get you immediately admitted to hospital. It'd be courting heart failure.

I really hope I've just spectacularly misunderstood somewhere along the line.

Are you a fella or a chick?

That's an incredible amount of weight to lose so quickly - saggy much?!

I think I want to be 200lbs and then put on muscle.

Typo?

100 is too light, you don't have a starting point of no muscle at all unless you totally run your body into the ground- that's not weight control, it's starvation. The weight you're at now is a very decent starting point - on the significantly low side of the spectrum - for getting stronger and fitter. What sort of muscle do you want to end up with - endurance athlete, sprinter, rock climbing??

Nothing like that, just stronger tbh. I'm not 100% sure I want just yet.

Dont worry all, he put a typo at the start. Unless he has lost 10 stone in 3 months hehe

He is now 232lbs, and wants to get to 200lbs and then put on muscle.

270's to 230's is 3.5stone lost.

40 more lbs would be a pretty good goal.

Still, you haven't lost weight healthily. Too much, too soon. I think this poor diet has contributed towards your headaches. Blood Glucose level must be poor.

rofl thank fk for that, you were really worrying me!

Yeah okay nice one and crack on, but maybe if you can, slow down the weight loss or even go for maintenance while you sort the headaches? No technical thinking behind it, just wondering if reducing the variables might help!

That's the thing, the headaches have stopped whilst I'm on a break from the diet, so it's confusing!

Thats not confusion. You simply have a headache from lack of energy/anything in your body!

I was on the diet, and had barely any headaches. The diet provided me with what I needed during the day and I never felt hungry or any lack of energy.

Since I stopped the diet and been eating normally, I've had headaches.

I think you should go and see a doctor as you seem confused in addition to your headaches. It could be something completely unrelated to what you are eating and drinking and a checkup can't do any harm.

Another shout out for a daith piercing. I don't have one, just a friend who has, and no longer gets headaches.
Wow, your friend got this piercing and now you no longer get headaches, that's some positive benefit there!

I was suffering with a weird fluctuating sensation in my left eye and at least 8 migraine attacks a month, and I mean true migraines I finally tracked it down to drinking lime juice cordial There is an additive in it which can cause headaches etc Stopped taking it and been fine for months

I've come to the conclusion that headaches must stem from my neck I think.

Whenever I try to click my neck in a backwards forward Motion, I'll get pain where the headaches usually are and sometime doing that develops into a bad headache.

Any idea why, and solutions?
