Ok, here what I can think the problems may be
-make sure your getting enough omega 3's(take fish oil)
-make sure your getting some monosaturated fats(nuts, Peanut butter, olive oil)
-are you getting enough sleep?
-How much carbs are you eating? Are you eating any grains or fruit? What about veggies?
-try eating a bit more.

I would try the diet for another week or two and see if your body acclimates to fat as an energy source. If you feel better, great. If you still feel like crap, maybe add some carbs in slowly.(fruits, oatmeal, stuff like that.)
