Sometimes they can be due to low blood sugar, but it's more commonly from dehydration. Try drinking more water and see if they get better. :) Also, are you drinking less caffeine? That could do it too.
Might also be low in sodium, I tend to get headaches alot if I'm low... usually resolved with some pretzels.
How many calories are you consuming in a day? I had headaches when I wasn't eating enough AND when I drank diet ANYTHING. I was doing the Slim Fast thing at the time and it really didn't work well for me as I just wasn't consuming enough calories.
Hmm, i would guess a change in caffeine too (lots of people cut soda as one of the first things when starting to diet, so sudden lack of normal caffeine levels).
