Hi to all. Pre diabetic here. Last few days I have no energy at all. Whilst I'm following the low carb diet yesterday and the day before I fell a bit of the wagon and ate bread and rice. Blood sugar's yesterday were 8.4 after eating. 5.2 before. Today they dropped a little after food to 6.6. could this be the reason whilst I feel low on energy? It is it just the weather. Still really new to all this .

Thank you so much for any tips or advice
 
When we reduce our carbs to lower than normal amounts we are also reducing our calories (energy). Lack of energy could mean insufficient calories, and the best way to combat this is to increase our good fats accordingly - like a sea-saw. Less carbs = higher fat. Have you addressed your fat intake?
