Default I'm so fatigued!

I am so fatigued! I am in the middle of my 7th week low carb. I keep my daily carbs under 20-25, many days much lower. I don't exactly count carbs perfectly but I stick only to very low carb foods. I have done LC many times before and I have never felt exhaustion like this before. I am just dragging all day. It is all I can do to keep putting one foot in front of the other when I absolutely have to. My home and yard are getting messy because once Im home from work I just want to be sleeping or on the couch. This is not like me at all! Please help! I am eating a good amount of fat and drinking lots of water. I wasn't taking vitamins at first but have been for about a week now but I haven't noticed a difference in energy since starting them. I am so tired my eyes are always red and burning, my muscles are weak, achy and sore and I just feel miserable!

Here is a list of the foods I eat:
bacon
chicken
salami (occasionally)
cheese
cream cheese
sour cream
broccoli
cauliflower
leafy greens
heavy cream
coconut flour (occasionally and only sparingly)
coconut oil
whipped cream
butter
dark low sugar chocolate ( occasionally and sparingly)
eggs
strawberries (occasionally)
stevia
I use a good amount of pink sea salt

These are the vitamins I am taking... my fatigue started before I was taking them...

I have only lost 2 pounds this month, I did have an issue with ordering coffee with stevia and it ended up having sugar instead but other than that I have been in moderate ketosis most the time, once in a while higher or lower but usually moderate- but always is ketosis.

My bloodsugar is staying between 83 and 89 at all times...

I am just not sure what else I can do... I have been under a lot of stress lately so that may be it. If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them. I am so tired of being tired!
