afternoon pick-me-up ideas

Okay, I am in first trimester and I am soooo very tired. I don't really have the option to take a nap during the day, though right now that sounds so wonderful. What did you guys do to give you that extra boost until you could get home and lay down or better yet go to bed early?

boost. it works WONDERS!!! that and green tea. i was having the same fatigued feeling and not being able to even move after 11 am because i'd be so tired. my ob said that boost is a really good nutirtional drink that has that extra energy boosting nutrients in it. i've been drinking it for almost 3 weeks now (one every morning) and i'm good all day and at bed time (usually around 9-10 pm) i'm ready to go to sleep. and green tea is just naturally energizing and has antioxidants in it. so both REALLY help me out.

try walking around the parking lot for 10 minutes, it should re-energize you until you can go home and drink some cold icy water.  Limit the sweets and bread stuff as that will make you have a carb-coma

That is how I feel. I feel so run down. I want to take a relaxing bath and then go to bed early tonight, but it seems like no matter how early I go to bed, it's just not enough to make it through the day.
