Very low calorie diets can cause fatigue and make it difficult to meet your nutritional needs. Since portions for all foods weren't listed, I made some assumptions. You might not be getting enough protein in your diet, especially if your protein shake is made with water. Add some crackers, bread, or pasta at lunch to get more carbohydrates for energy. Try adding beans to a salad or a meal for fiber and added protein.
Soluble fiber helps to reduce cholesterol.
