Hello people and good morning!

I am currently on a low carb diet. It is not too bad, it keeps me full all day and I hardly eat in between (celery and cheese sticks for snacks, sometimes)

I have a problem though, I am not obese at all, slightly over weight, but not obese.... having said that I am really unfit still. I cannot use a bike for more than 3 minutes without getting too tired, even sometimes if i itch, my hand feels tired from itching!! I just am so weak... I do not have iron deficiency (got it checked) I also hardly ever exercised... but still, people who don't exercise can do better than this, surely! I can't even run for more than 50m (if that...)

What's wrong? even before the low carb diet I was crap and unfit... so I cannot even blame that.

You're on a low carb diet and wondering why exercise makes you tired? That said, not being able to run 50m is abnormal. Have you been to the doctor?

But how much? Can you give me a rough idea of what you eat for each meal? Then we can work out if your tiredness is related to what you're eating!

I started walking 50 minutes to work 4 times a week I walk everywhere etc but that is all relatively recent

Excellent. Maybe you could start running it. I walk a lot, probably 2-3 miles a day with the dog but there is no way I could run that far yet. It takes time to build up your muscles to be able to run. Good luck.
