Hello guys,
I'm still around and fighting haha. I started eating some veggies at every meal, and I try to not take carbs without some kind of fat. My blood sugar is improved. I calculate I take around 50-60 grams of carbs a day, but I still feel weak in the legs. Will that go away? I weight around 191 pounds and I don't know if the body is in shortage of carbs, or it's adjusting? I still don't want to go keto, because I don't eat enough veggies at this point.
If your blood sugar levels have improved, you are on the right track and your body is still in the process of change to lower carbs, your body is telling you to increase the carbs, when you really don't! There is no reason why, you should not go Keto or as near as you can, just hovering above will do nicely as long as you are aware of your blood sugar levels continually.
I don't eat enough vegetables, but have enough fat and different proteins and a few veg to help get my balance as right as I can.
Unless the weaknesses in your legs are caused by something else, then it should slowly get better as your energy levels get better.
Keep persisting with low carb, it is hard and demanding, but the benefits are really good.
Best wishes
