Yesterday on my 6th day of induction, I felt extremely tired and even weak all day. I still feel that way today. I got more than enough sleep last night, I'm getting plenty of protein and vegetables, and I'm not going under 20 carbs a day.

I didn't experience this when I did induction for a full two weeks late last year. I'm trying to determine if my diet has anything to do with this sudden fatigue and weakness.

Anybody know anything about this?

Check out the salt thread. Sodium depletion can cause those symptoms and a low carb diet will make you excrete sodium.

Ok, I'll do that. Thank you.
