I have trouble focusing and I just feel like I don't have much energy. How can I feel more awake?
A bit more information: I get about 7-8 hours of sleep every night. I work 5 days a week from 8 am - 4 pm. I have a cup of coffee in the morning. I eat things like oatmeal, waffles, tuna, pasta, frozen meals, hamburgers, green beans, shredded wheat, brownies. I drink water (possibly not as much as I should). I was exercising more often but I got out of a short term relationship (I was a little upset) about a month ago and haven't really gotten back into the walking/resistance training. I stretch a little bit but probably not as much as I should (I do notice a boost in energy from a little stretching).
My main issue is I'll get to work and just zone out. It's not that I don't like my job, I want to get things done more than anything, but I often find myself feeling drained and I'm not quite sure why.
Any tips on getting better would be much appreciated. I want to just be a ball of energy but I simply feel like I can't. Thanks.
i wrote a long, detailed plan.. and after previewing it, i forgot to send it in. so, my hard work went down the tubes. im sorry...
anyway, i wrote that these are my own regimens I use:
*eat an apple or banana everyday with all natural peanut butter everyday with my breakfast
*stay away from heavy amounts of caffeine (possible you're experiencing a paradoxical or rebound reaction to the caffeine)-- herbal tea may help
*take a complete multi-vitamin every morning after breakfast with a large glass of water
*eat nuts and seeds while at work to keep your mind somewhat alert (when blood sugar peaks and troughs, concentration and alertness is affected)
*do cardio exercise everyday at least 15 min... 30 min is the recommended, but 15 seems to be good for me. a workout dvd works or a used eliptical machine (i got one on craigslist for $30)
*keep eating a varied diet that is low in BAD fat like trans-fat and saturated fat. these increase your lipid levels and decrease energy! poly and mono unsaturated fats are great in moderation!
*try to get at least 8 hrs of sleep
*maintain a good sleep rhythm.. on weekends, wake up only an hour or so later than you do during the week and go to bed only an hour or two later
i hope this helps. if it's too hard to do it all at once, a few changes at a time can certainly help!!!! good luck!
