[QUOTE="mariavontrapp, post: 2003101, member: 188149"] I'm not sure how long you have been low-carbing, but I went through some similar things and it has taken me about 8 weeks to settle into it. My thighs have also been affected and my legs felt weak when walking. I had low carb flu for about a week and then brain fog. I also felt a bit down. So what I had to do was read up on what a well- formulated LCHF diet would look like, and address any nutritional deficiencies. I also had to be patient whilst my body adjusted. Things that helped me were - adding more salt, taking magnesium supplements and taking B vitamins - these may be particularly important for you if you are feeling down. Low carbing without the help of a dietitian or other medical professional can be very difficult and scary. We shouldn't have to be put in this position where we have to go it alone, but sadly many of us are, and I think this can add to feelings of anxiety as we have the additional worry about whether we are doing the right thing. Keep posting and asking for advice on the Forum. Wishing you all the best x [/QUOTE]
