Thats semi true. Simple carbs are processed quickly and turn into suger. Excess sugar is then stored as fat. However, you need carbs. Eat complex carbs which is whole wheat. Such as brown rice, sweet potato, whole wheat bread (nothing that says whole grain tho just whole weat) etc etc Carbs is the second most important food group do not neglect it.

Maybe mentally you're trying too hard to eat right and its wearing you out?

[Xfitchick]

Because energy = carbs. You need a minimum of carbs to keep your engine going. Its only when your carb intake is haigher than your daily need, that it is transformed into fat.

How long have you been low-carb?

[MusicOfTheManik]

Month and a half.

[0112358]

You mention working out for 3 hours on no carbs, or fat. How much do you weigh? What kinds of workouts are you doing?

You simply do not have the same energy to do high intensity exercise without carbs.

are u depressed?

[MusicOfTheManik]

No just I am not depressed it just takes a lot of effort to get anything don especially working out for 3 hours.

[NexAngelus]

a lot of depressions are not like u see on tv. lack of motivatin is a form of depression. and ur lack of energy is another like side effect of it. u should have ur/a doctor look at u. maybe not even suggest it, just see what they think. suggestion can sometimes sway ppls thoughts. that is why u may not want to.
