How long have you been on your low carb diet? If your just starting out, your body is adjusting. You will soon then start to feel better. Also, I was just wondering if you are carb-loading 2x per week. this will replenish your muscles and keep you close to ketosis but not in it. This is how i cut to loose bodyfat and I also retain my lean mass. What carbs are you eating during the week?

the first week is alway the hardest. Eventually your body will adjust. You might think of trying an eca formula or drinking a cup of coffee to give you a little boost.
