Should i stop IF if im having intense headaches?

Before i elaborate on this, im 5’7 and 170 lbs with the goal of going down to 155. I originally was 230 lbs when i started my diet. My hunger urges have subsided, and yesterday i was having a bad headache first I thought it was stress due to a activity i was doing but about 3 minutes after i ate my intense headache went away. Today, about 2 hours after i woke up i started to have a intense headache again and its not very common for me to have headaches. I just grabbed myself a granola bar and may get something else but i just wanted to get a consensus first.

It’s pretty hard to give medical advice, but here’s just my own experience : I tend to get headaches from eating (some) carbs. I have no clue what triggers it but have you tried paleo or keto and had these headaches as well?
