When you lose weight, do you stop feeling sluggish? I'm not sure it's just a mindset thing anymore, I'm a lot more cheerful as of late, but I've become so accustomed to this near-constant lethargy and easy tiredness..

I think everyone gets affected differently. I found my energy levels were very low before and most of the way thru LT but are much better now post refeed. Before LT I used to eat to 'give me energy' which actually had the opposite effect and I couldn't get my head around it. I did wonder during LT why after constantly losing weight week after week I was unable to enjoy the 'lightness' and energy boost I was expecting as I was so much lighter. It's only become obvious to me now that I have more energy, and it's so nice now to be able to race up the stairs without having to think twice 
You may not feel the benefits straight away, but you will further down the line. Keep going, it will be worth it x x x

Makes perfect sense. Thank you so much for your support, I'll be waiting it out. x

Hiya,
Totay agree with the above! I used to eat because I was tired expecting energy which is not how to retrieve energy, now I either have a cold glass f water and a walk around or a nap!
I'm in week 3 at the moment and quite tired often, Nothing that really affects function though, one day at a time! X

Hi, yeah i think it may have different effects. i'm only on day 8 but i've felt very energetic and light since day 4. Im not sure if its just the fact that i know im losing the weight so its making me more enthusiastic.
I guess it might make it easier to keep thinking about the weight lost already and being closer to goal, and just in general to be optimistic about it all but i understand naturally there will be times where we'll all feel down about it, its ok though, happens whether we're losing weight or not, tis normal
goodluck x
