sabine:
welcome! I think most people experience a few days of low energy levels in the early stages of a low-carb diet, but be assuered that it will pass relatively quickly. Keep up your water intake and maybe back off the workouts slightly for the first week or so. You should have no problem keeping your muscle tone if you continue are doing some resistance training. Good luck.
