What is it that makes you sleepy after meals? Is the carbs? Or a sugar crash? (btw I don't eat sugary food - normally leftovers which is rice or pasta with veg.

    Its to do with insulin levels. You might be eating too much and the wrong sorts of foods. Look up low GI foods - they should keep you level and feeling good.

    might be there is not enough fat in your diet. Happened to me when I started eating clean. Now I have more energy than ever.

    Open your diary if you don't mind!
