[QUOTE="ChocFish, post: 28957, member: 981"] Hi smitha I am wondering if you are eating enough protein at lunch time and that this could be the reason for feeling so tired in the afternoon? Dont go overboard on protein though, just try to have a little more at lunch time and then less in the evenings? Or snack on a few nuts and seeds an hour or so after lunch, before you feel so tired (is it roughly at the same time each day?) As for constipation, nuts and seeds are rich in protein but also have fibre and contain good oils, they will help your bowels and make sure you eat tons of vegetables, and some fruit, depending on how low carb you want or rather need to be. Also remember that it is important to have plenty to drink I hope this problem settles soon. All the best Karen [/QUOTE]
