What Could The Stomach Cramps That I Get While Dieting Be?

I have been dieting by calorie counting for the past week and a half. Over the past three days, I have had painful, sharp, intermittent pains in my stomach throughout the day and night. They feel like hunger pains except they do not subside with eating and they even happen while I'm eating. Any ideas?
