Hi mmxchamp,

Maybe you need a gradual introduction to LC. Try starting ignoring how many grams of carbs you're eating. Just eliminate wheat from your diet for two weeks while making sure you fat intake is at least 50% of calories (use Fitday or something similar to keep yourself honest). The next two weeks, increase your fat to 60%, make half of your meals from scratch, and eliminate corn. And so on (fat percentage should ultimately be 65-75%).

And so on.

Also, don't decrease carbs below 40g/day. This isn't Atkins; there's no induction period.
