• I sleep between 8-10 hours a night
• I drink 2-3L of water every day
• I exercise moderately for one hour, every day. Not intensely. Moderately
• I take 4000ui of vitamin D in the winter to make up for the lack of sunshine
• I take the lowest dose of my antidepressant, which has never made me tired before
• I eat an average of 1500-1600kcal/day (more on Bikram days), and very little of it is junk
• I go to yoga twice a week to de-stress
• I write, blog, and journal
• I take time to read and drink tea
• I spend quality time with my husband
• I keep in touch with, and visit friends a couple times a week
• I play outside with my kids
• I only drink one 8oz coffee a day…maybe two on the weekends
• And no, I am 100% not pregnant

For all intents and purposes, I should feel like a million bucks! But instead, I am so. very. tired. most days of the week. I can’t figure it out. I’ve booked some blood work for this week to check my iron levels, and to also do a celiac blood test. I hope that my doctor has some other suggestions as well, because I can’t get over this fatigue.

I hate to say that it’s debilitating, but on mornings like this, I can’t drag myself out of bed until after 10am. I bribe my kids to play quietly in their room or my room. My eyes are so heavy that they ache.

Maybe it’s just my body giving in to the stress from December. Whatever it is, I’d like it to leave quickly so that I can perk back up again!
