Can you get a headache from dieting? I started a diet a couple of weeks ago, and have been having god awful headaches ever since. Is this connected or just coincidence?

Yes, it's a known symptom. First check if you drink enough water. That could be a main reason. It could be giving up caffeine (no chocolate, cola etc.)

Also depends on the type of diet. If you are cutting carbs, which is a big "no-no" you could be causing the headaches. Glycogen stores are created from the carbs that you consume. Carbohydrates are the brains preferred source of fuel. Deplete them and you will have headaches and eventually experience some serious lethargy.
