I always feel tired, dont feel like doing much of anything and nothing to motivate me to do anything..Anyone else ever had this problem? And if so what did you do about it?

    There are times when I feel like I don't have any energy to do anything... but it's not an option. One night last week I felt VERY blah and actually just wanted to go to be early. Instead, i thought i'd put in an 'easy' work out video to atleast get that in for the day. Well, it wasn't as easy as i remembered it and by the end of the workout i felt so much better. If you use workout dvd's maybe you could get a new one or set a small goal and once you meet it reward yourself. It looks like you've already come a long way and are doing a great job!!!

    I have that exact problem right now... BUT I'm pregnant so...

    I used to get up every morning and just do it. If I got my workouts in right away I felt more energized all day. I never actually "wanted" to get up, but on the days I would skip, I certainly felt blah...

    It sounds kind of counter-intuitive, but when I feel like this I usually try and get some exercise, go for a walk or just do a small workout. Gets me going and helps out when I'm feeling low or energyless!

    Yes I feel that way all the time, I'm going to retry (for the millionth time) walking/jogging on a regular basis again

    I was feeling the same way a few months ago and it turned out that my vitamin D levels were really low...which can be really common in the winter months...just something to think about?!?
