Default Re: Feeling disheartened

When did the energy disappear? You posted in May about feeling very energetic, and having an easier time getting out of bed. Try to think about any changes in your eating or habits between now and then, you might find your culprit.

And what is your exercise regimen like? Exercise will make you LESS tired, not more! The endorphin boost alone is worth the investment of exercise. You just feel better! And my philosophy is..(gotta have one because the pounds are moving excruciatingly slowly now that I am nearer goal... we really have that in common!) that you can't stall as long as you are exercising. Even if the scale doesn't move, you are continually improving your body if you keep moving!

And in the meantime, focus on other beneftis like not being a slave to your cravings, etc. A good multi-vitamin or high potency B-complex vitamin might be in order. I have use sublingual B vitamin supplements to good effect when very tired, you can get them easily enough at any drugstore, it is a liquid that goes under the tongue. When you feel very fatigued, sometimes it helps to get vitamins in liquid form, Centrum has a liquid or other brands may also. It just feels like they get in your system faster. B vitamins are very important for energy, and cutting out grains and beans you might not be getting enough, so it is something to try.

Hope you get to feeling better!
