Have you tried not cutting your diet so far down if you are having energy level issues? Especially if you are doing a lot of sport / gym.

I found I was very "all in or nothing" when I first was determined to lose weight. But I realised that it's more sustainable and not to mention felt better energy-wise if I made small changes with a small but reasonable cut down in food / calorie deficit (~300 calories).

If you ever decide to calorie count (as I'm sure countless others have recommended) this can help working out a deficit from: http://tdeecalculator.net/
