From Fatigued to Fabulous

So many women complain to me they simply can’t break through their tiredness and exhaustion to become active.
 
Having had CFS many years ago, I have gone from being bed-ridden (see
my story) to owning a women’s lifestyle company!  If I can do it - so can YOU!
 
Here are a few tips to break out of hibernation and embrace the warmer weather climate and activities with open arms!
 
1.  Drink your H20! Fatigue is a sign of dehydration, so drink up! According the Mayo clinic, your weight divided by 2 = your suggested ounces for the day!
 

2.  Not only will your skin look amazing, you will have so much energy from being properly hydrated!!

3.  Watch the caffeine & sugar in your sodas and coffee drinks! This will provide a false high that will leave you craving more once you CRASH!

4.  Check your iron intake with your doctor. Signs of an iron deficiency are fatigue, cracked lips, a cold body and poor memory.    

5.  Sleep Survey - how is the quality of your sleep these days? Make sure your room is dark and quiet for a sound slumber!

6.  You need your B-vitamins (check with your doctor)! You need adequate B intake for a healthy metabolism!

7.  Put out the cigarette! Smokers can feel tired due to the lack of oxygen in their bloodstream.

8.  Talk with your Doctor to rule out thyroid, CFS, depression, etc.

9.  Enjoy a carb snack during your menstrual cycle to combat the tiredness, caused by hormonal drop.

10.  WORK OUT! I began working out 2 minutes a day when I was ill! Bust through the tiredness to reach the other side of ENERGY!

In Good Health,
