I feel weak and shaky on clean-eating diet that my trainer has me on
I recently hired a trainer and am planning to compete next March in first bikini competition. My trainer has me on typical clean eating diet (eating 6 small meals a day, high protein, low fat). I feel HORRIBLE on this diet. I am shaky and whenever I bend over I get a head rush and feel like I'm going to pass out. I feel weak at the gym. I told my trainer how I felt and she had me add 1/4 cup more carbs to meals 1 and 2 but no more fat. Is it normal to feel 'off' when starting this type of diet? Before starting this diet I did not eat that healthy - lots of butter, sugar, simple carbs, etc but I still was thin (99lbs 5'1). Can I have wheat bread with pnut butter? I feel like all I'm eating now is oats, rice, eggs and some type of meat or fish...pretty large quantities but nothing that makes me feel energized or full.
