I need some Energy

[Lilakoi’s_Sister]

Ok ladies, I workout most days of the week and I watch my calories and fat however I still don't have as much energy as I need. I am embarking on a new career plus I work another little part time gig plus I'm gonna start taking classes so.... I need some energy. Anybody got any suggestions? I'm very open! I have a juicer so I can go that route. But any suggestions on what I can eat particularly to get my energy up over the next few days? Exercises? Acupunture? LOL Tia!

Wow...sounds like your schedule is going to be tight!:spinning:
Of course, proper diet certainly contributes to a good energy level. So if you've got that in check, then you should approach the problem by looking at all areas of your life. The causes of fatigue can be physiological (such as thyroid hormone levels), emotional (too much stress) and lifestyle related (hours of quality sleep at night). So be sure to check all areas of your current lifestyle.
Also avoid eating lots of carbs during the day time hours 'cause they can alter the level of serotonin in your brain and bring on feelings of calm and relaxation. That can make them a good before-bedtime snack, but less good in the middle of the day.
And get enough iron, many women lack energy because they lack iron in their diet. If you are still in your reproductive years and menstruate regularly, you lose iron each month. Unless it is replaced in your diet or with supplements, you will suffer some of the unpleasant symptoms of iron-deficiency anemia -- chronic fatigue being one of them. If you don't already take an iron supplement, you should.
Good luck with everything!
