you have no energy...seems to me your not eating enough for your size. your body cannot rebuild energy & muscle off this food supply. eat more complex carbs/fiber is my advice. Complex carbs give you a great base of energy, so your proteins can be used for building muscle instead of being used as fuel as is likely in your case.
I know low carb is popular & yes the body burns fat faster without carbs. But you feel like shit. The brain burns only carbs. so taking out carbs is best left to bodybuilders prepping for an event. not people looking to be healthy as a lifestyle.
& likely your body adjusted to your exercise routine. New activities like swimming, hiking over hills, go to a circuit regimen on the weights. these will keep the body changing & adapting to new forms of exercise.
