Just wanted to chime in with intermittent fasting experience. When you begin fasting the transition of 2-4 days can be really rough. I know you're not fasting per se but a considerable decrease in caloric intake may do similar things to your body. I would speak with a doctor but then find a weekend where you can just relax, maybe with an additional day off and focus on yourself. Do the diet, feel miserable for a bit in order to train your body and adapt to something new.
