I don’t know if this relates but I switched to a low carb diet a month ago (no fasting) and the first 2-3 weeks were terrible. I felt noticeably more depressed and my wife noticed it too. She recommended stopping the diet but I kept on and added electrolyte water. After adding electrolytes, I feel as good as ever. I started working out more and have lost 15 lbs but plateaued since. I want to try the fasting diet described in the article with no breakfast and no lunch but I am not sure if I’ll be able to. Since I do not eat carbs at dinner, often I’ll feel hungry around 9pm and it feels like an eternity to breakfast if I don’t go to bed soon there after. I can’t imagine skipping breakfast AND lunch on this type of routine without adding back the carbs. Anyway, I guess my point is that it gets better as you follow whatever diet you embarked on.
