Needing ideas for energy

[wenever]

Ok, now as some of you might have read, I am planning to take up with Atkins again after my move.

This next time around I want to beat this lack of energy thing, soo

Is there anyone out there who has done this?

What I want is people that have actually gone on atkins, felt really tired from it, but have overcome it.

Even BT people, what supplements have you taken that fix this problem please?

I know we are all different, but f I can try various methods it could be a process of elimination.

Who knows m new thyroid tablets might be the answer anyway, but I want to be prepared in case they don't make the difference

Im on BT and I know that it sounds like a contradiction....but exercise first thing in the morning gives me energy. Also taking a womens multivitamin. In the mornings I have a shot of juice( apple, carrot, ginger, garlic and coriander).:D

I'm on BT (but incorporating more fat into the program) and I take a womens multivitamin and don't have any issues with tiredness. I also find that exercising first thing in the morning energises me. I also find that the low-carb way of eating gives me constant energy as you are running off your fat stores rather than relying on carb highs and lows. Hopefully once you are in ketosis you will get the same sort of energy. Good luck!

Oops, forgot to mention that the supplement I take is Blackmores Women's Vitality Multi. Choice.com.au reviewed a lot of multivitamins and found this to be the best one, which is why I chose it.

I am on an atkins WOL and I have lots of energy. I do take supplements though. Vit B and a vit d calcium mix. I suffer from allergies and find that antihistamines sap energy when I have to take them I make sure I drink plenty of fluids and add a protein shake in late afternoon. I agree with Melly that low carb gives you energy and taking a walk or doing some exercise seems to pep me up.
