Energy

[jddancy]

Just curious on everyones 'journey', when did you get your energy back?  I did a load of laundry and thought I ran a marathon.  Everything feels so exurting!  I am doing the Thomas Recipe so I am sure that can help but no appetite makes you weak too.  Just curious wbout everyone.

kind of remind me of when pregnant the doctor would say well it took you 9 months to get like this...Don't be surprised if it don't take you 9 months to lose it all!!!!
YUK!!
I was very stubborn and lost it quick, thank god, because when pregnant i was always a FAT A S S!!!!
So i am willing to give my brain time to heal..Just happy i have one LEFT!!

On day 8 I'm at work.  Last night I made dinner, did a load of laundry and played with my kids.  I was SSOOOOO proud of myself.  I felt like a school girl asking for a reward.  But I'm really worn out.  I'm on hour 8 of work.

The energy came in bursts after about day 7...but i worked out 3x a week and i think that really  helped....i am 22 days and the last 3 days i have felt great....
(except for rls..that's still hanging on a little)!!!

Never been on a journey quite like this one before!!!!
What a journey it has been, huh?

ENERGY IS GOOD!!!!

wow that is a tough one for me..Because i used for about 3 yrs, i guess i had forgetten what my old energy use to be like...So even now at 5 months clean , it is not like it was back then...BUT in this time, i had a terrible surgery , lost alot of blood....That contributes to that...BUT i always tell myself, the reason i started was pain, the reason i took when not in pain was the energy, i would have house spic and span, all cloths was always done, etc,, but once that goes away and tolerence builds u just keep taking not to get sick...AND NEVER EVER get that first time feeling again...
So if this makes any sense, i am happy with what i have..I realize my house doesn't have to be spotless, etc...
But having the clear head, no more spending money, lying to docs, and family is worth more then anything to me...I was so tired of the chase...and merry- go - round.
I do beleive that this does alot to our brains when on for yrs, so it will take a while to feel like we were yrs ago....
hope this made some sense!!!
every day makes a difference
So keep going, god bless

it takes a long time for some. I'm still lacking energy and its been about 4 weeks now. I've been eating mega men vitamins from gnc like candy and B-12 and Red Bull and Monsters and it's getting there.
