I am 5'10", 198. Looking for 185
I have been l-carbing for about 6 weeks now. 20+lbs down and absolutely zero cravings.
The only cheating I have done is 2-3 drinking nights but even then I drank gin and stayed away from beer.
I strictly limit myself to 20 carbs a day, take a good multivitamin, drink an amazing amount of water (180-240 oz/day), maintain a 70%fat/25%protein/5%carb ratio, have a 3-4 cup salad every night, keep my cals to 1600-2000/day etc.
Anyway, I am always tired and I have bags under my eyes. In desperation I have started taking an ECA stack the last couple of weeks just to keep going. I can't figure it out. I just crash every night around 8:00pm and wake up tired the next day.
I thought it might be from the amount of steak I was eating (almost everyday) so I cut that out but I am still inordinately tired and I don't sleep well.
I have tried other diets and have not always lived the healthiest lifestyle but I have never been this consistently tired. I am otherwise very healthy....any ideas????
thanx
