So I tried the low carb thing again and it really, really didn't make things better. I did it for three days, and day 4 (today) I ended up crying into my keyboard at work and having to go home. I was so ashamed about crying in public, but I felt so bad I couldn't help myself. I was so weak and dizzy. I've spent all day on the couch re-carbing myself and I am gradually coming back to life. Yet, I don't feel like my blood sugar is low. I just feel like my body has no fuel and I'm crashing.
Does anyone else have this experience? I lose weight that I don't need to lose quick quickly when I cut down on carbs and it seems to make me sicker. But I keep reading how everyone else (it seems like) is helped by a keto sort of diet. I'm not even trying for keto- just eating less bread and more meat and veggies. What helps in terms of diet when you can't do low carb?
