[QUOTE="Etty, post: 279644, member: 27748"] Welcome millie, you're doing really well. Don't get downhearted about symptoms like tiredness, they are very common to begin with when people switch from running on carbs to running on fat. Be sure not to go hungry, eat as much as you want of protein and fat foods, and don't worry about the fat content. You need those calories to replace lost carb calories. Forget about low calorie foods. Eat a good portion of protein at every meal. Having some extra salt on your food for the first few weeks will help with the transition side effects. Most of your carbs can come from vegetables (not root veg like potatoes/parnsips), a little fruit, nuts and dairy products. When I started, I used to substitute ryvita for bread. It has half the carbs, and gives you something to spread butter and cheese on. If you haven't seen these websites, they are helpful for ideas of what to eat.
