    Question Very Tired Lately?????

    I have been following my nutrition closely. I eat well, proteins, low sugar and carbs. Excercise 3 days a week (swimming). But the last week i have been so tired, i havent eaten close the the amount of protein i should be taking in, could that be it? I have been having issues with forgetting to drink as much too? I refuse to weigh myself until i go to the Dr in August, I know i have lost weight, i keep going down sizes but i made a pact that the first 3 months i would only weigh in at the Dr's because i didnt want to get discouraged by stalls? Need advice! Thanks!

    Are you taking any B-12 supplements? B-12 helps with energy levels - I started taking a sublingual (liquid drop under the tongue) supplement when I went back to work (after two weeks) and it helped tremendously!

    be sure to be taking all your vitamins, and yes, protein helps keep the tired monster away. I found I was not drinking enough unless I was drinking our of a straw. I know i know...everyone says you cannot drink from a straw...well you can. we are all old enough to know how to drink from a straw and not introduce added air to our tummies.

    It is just a thought. As for the protein, I ate nothing but the proteins for the first 4 months after my surgery. I am 8+ months out and that still makes up 90% of all my intake for food...all protein based.
