Diagnose me

I am always so tired. At about 2-3 p.m, I am dragging so bad. I feel like I am horribly fat and I just feel so sluggish. I am not horribly fat, though. My BMI is 18.56. I just feel like I'm carrying around a bag of rocks all day.

I am not iron deficient. I don't have thyroid issues. I eat plenty, sleep enough, drink lots of water. What is my problem? I'm exhausted! Coffee is not the solution.

Re: Diagnose me

  • Gluten intolerant? I'm not wheat free but the book Wheat Bellt really opened my eyes to how glutens can make some people feel like what you are describing.

  • I feel the same way.  I think it's parenting that's doing it to me.  There's always so much that needs to get done, I always feel behind, it's exhausting to think about another person's needs every second of the day, etc.  Tired.

    Coffee is always the solution.

    Just kidding... sort of. Sorry I don't have a real answer for you.

    ha! I agree, coffee has been rocking my socks off lately.

    Seriously, though. It sounds like you should be having this conversation with your doctor, not a bunch of Internet strangers. 

    Pass the sheet cake.

  • Try to get out and exercise a couple times a week. That helps me when I feel down and tired. The fresh air clears my head.

  • I've been to the doctor where they tested my thyroid and everything.. did blood tests.
    I'm not really bored. I don't really get out and do many exciting things because "fun" is not on my list of priorities at the moment...
    Blah. I do have a date with DH this weekend though. If I don't fall asleep just kidding.
