On day 11 of Dukan, ie lean protein, low fat, small servings of veg, no yoghurt etc. 1.5-2l water a day.
Anyone doing something similar?? Please let me know how this is working for you. Would have hoped to have more energy by now, 11 days in

    I'm not specifically doing the Dukan diet, but I am eating what sounds like similar macros. I don't have a problem with my energy levels. Are you tracking how many calories you're eating? Is it possible that you simply aren't eating enough? People tolerate different macro levels differently and if you're not feeling well on this diet, you probably won't be able to stick to it long term. I would consider eating a little bit more if you're under or look at adjusting the macro levels to suit your body better.

    High protein, low carb, low fat is not a good idea. Google "rabbit starvation". If you want to eat low fat, you eat high fat, not high protein. How many calories are you taking in per day?
