Help I'm on slimfast and feel tired all the time

Help I'm on slimfast and feel tired all the time. I have one shake for breakfast usually and eat salad or low fat and low cal food until 6pm where I have a 600kcal meal. I am feeling really tired all the time and I when I used to over eat I could stay awake for 15 hours easily. Now I can only stay awake for 12 hours, I used to sleep not more than 6 or 8 hours a day before the diet. What I can I do to keep losing weight but not feel so tired all the time. Sleeping is not the answer because I can't cut my hours down and I can't sleep for 12 hours because that is bad. Eat a better diet! Slimfast works, but it's just so much junk food - and you can't live on it indefinitely. You would do much better to work out an eating plan that you can follow indefinitely, allowing for the occasional blow-out, holidays, visits to parents, etc. Your excess weight didn't go on in a hurry, and it won't come off that way, either. Aim to lose no more than 2 lb/week - a weight loss of as little as 8 oz is fine (after all, after a year you will have lost 26 lbs). -- Annabel - "Mrs Redboots" 90/88/80kg |

I wonder what the 600 calorie meal consists of. There's a big difference
between 600 cals veggies and 600 cals of fat. Perhaps this is where the problem is?
