I've been lowering my carbs more and more lately in order to lose more adopise tissue, but the side effects are starting to kick in. Mainly my body is going into a high state of thermogeneis. My head feels like it's about to explode and I'm hot all the time. My macros are around 45/20/35 P/C/F. Lately I've had to increase my carb intake to counteract all of this. Has anyone else gone through something similar?

I've been reading a lot lately on the topic and realize I have to increase my carb intake to counteract the efffcts, which slows the cutting process.

Try more veggies and fats. I've tried cutting carbs and my body hates it. The only way I can do it is to fill up on healthy fats.
