    Why not start yourself with some lower-impact exercises to build stamina and work up from there?

    Try taking berocca and Co-enzyme Q10. I found they really boosted my energy levels and made me want to get out and exercise.

    I find getting up early in the morning means I have no excuse for not exercising, as I am too tired at night after work. Means I have to get to bed early, but that's a good thing too.

    Good luck

    the more you exercise the more energy you will have.

    start slow and keep building.

    remember - good lean protein, good veggies and healthy carbs! oatmeal for breakfast!

    PS. if you are ultra tired - you may want to speak to your doctor. get checked out professionally.

    also - try a good multi vitamin, b-complex and vitamin d.

    Find something you love to do, not have to do...then your motivation will change. If its walking a dog and getting fresh air, or hiking, going for a bike ride, relaxation stretches with yoga, or shaking your thing in Zumba. If you find something you love, you will look at exercise in a whole new light.

    You should be able to. Some supermarkets sell them too.
