Why am I so Tired today?

Can someone tell me why I am so Tired today! I am on my third week of Atkins, I am still on induction, I have not added anything new to my food intake. I have had nothing but energy the last 3 weeks but all of a sudden I am fighting to keep my eyes open. Please Help!

Could it just be due to your body dealing with the change of hours over the weekend?

I don't know, but I have been tired all week and I have been assuming it is a combination of the time change and the rainy weather we have been having. Not everything that happens to your body is related to low carbing.

Hi Amy,

Could be TOM (time of the month) coming. I usually get so tired before and since starting Atkins it increased even more. Get a lot of sleep!
Good luck!

How's the weather been where you're at? Rainy and cloudy? For more than three days now? If so, that would do it!! Natural reaction to lack of sunlight.
