If you’re limiting carbs in your diet, then you know how tough following this regimen can be, especially if, like me, you are a person who is easily affected by having low blood sugar, which is a signpost of this type of diet. My fiance and I followed this diet quite successfully for a year or so and lost a lot of weight doing do, but we also tended to get into really vile moods because of not having enough carbs in our system. I believe that it’s easier to snap and also to have blue moods more often when you follow a low carb diet, especially if it’s a particularly strict one.
What we did to “compensate” for the fact that we were constantly depriving ourselves of carbs, which we all tend to love so much, was we would load up on fats, which isn’t necessarily good for your cholesterol or your liver. I also think that eating so much meat has a profound effect on your overall digestive system, particularly your colon, which can easily get clogged up when you are eating too many meats and cheeses.
You need to make sure that you get enough fibrous material when you are low carbing it, or else you will end up blocked up quite a bit, which means you are unable to go to the bathroom as often as you could. This in itself can put you in a foul mood!
