Will this LCHF make me feel to tired and weak, given that my intake is fairly less.

[Durham24]

Thanks every one for your valuable inputs.

LCHF is a great method to follow,

However, some how, I get a feel that, by adhering to LCHF, my intake is significantly less.

Just started on LCHF (not fully though)

I am now 63 years of age.

How will I feel if I continue this for over 2 years.

Would I need to carry a WALKING STICK to go for walks ?

Meaning will this render me feel like Oldies that are 90 +.

Advance thanks to all of you for your great inputs. This is a great forum

Please count the calories instead of food quantity . As you know ,LCHF diet will give the same calories as of carb rich diet twice its quantity

go Raw. replace food intake with raw veggies and fruits. check the glycemic index as many fruits are high in sugar which can be avoided. drink vegetable juices. try ayurvedic approach by researching online.

You have not posted anything about your sugar control.And if you are not feeling energetic enough to walk for 30 to 40 minutes daily,you should treat it as unacceptable.If the problem is with your diet,fine tune it so that you have sufficient energy and also have good sugar control.At the end of the day,you have to find a solution by yourself but feeling low in energy is not healthy.

yes, you are correct. yet, organic options are available.

[Durham24]

Yes. Medfree. I agree with you on this.

In fact, I ended up in FOOD POISONING due to UNCLEAN vegetables in India.

It took me ONE week Antibiotics to overcome the sickness.

I have seen

(a) Vendors walk over the vegetables

(b) Lot of flies sit on them.

(c) Vendors are located in placed adjacent to drains etc

(d) I heard that lot of chemicals are used (more so on the grapes)

We need to be careful.

We use hot water with salt and also Turmeric power to clean any vegetables.

From my experience, if I may add

Also, the food items being given in temples (Prasad) ...............horrible.

They are really not hygene at all......there may be exceptions.

They hardly maintain the big vessels being used etc.

I am not casting an impression nor trying to hurt any ones feelings.

This is only my humble observation from experience.

Being a diabetic, we need to be very careful.

For a diabetic,your fatigue might be demanding reduction in dosages of diabetic medicines.

Thanks everyone for your inputs / replies.

Has any one other than George measured the sugar level after stomach full of LW starch ?

Could you provide your numbers (after 1 1/2 hours of eating stomach full of LW starch).

Have a great week end

LW 2gm/Kg of body weight is for A DAY (2 meals) and 1 gm/kg of body weight is for 1 meal Thank you for pointing out the missing information. (This is the reason for me being detailed, earlier.) Brief statements give room for skeptics to speculate, confuse & misguide.
