I am not ill. I have just been feeling slightly ill, or nearly ill, or maybe nearly better? for about a month. Its getting a bit annoying and I am starting to wonder why it is. I was working hard. But I have had a chance to rest of late, and it just doesn't seem to be getting any better. Like I said, I am not ill, and its not that bad. I am just tired. As in, I could nap at any time, and I could sleep from 8.30pm easily. And I just feel - lethargic. I am perfectly able to muster up any energy I need to, to do stuff if I need to, but once that mustering has passed, I just want to sleep.
I have been reading about going gluten free. I am wondering if I need to take this step. It feels like a vicious cycle of lethargy and no energy and then no exercise and weakness leading to less activity etc etc. It may be just winter and the fact that I am fighting off cold after cold. I have had slight earache, or a touch of a sore throat, or a minor bit of a cough, but no actual cold or flu or anything. Perhaps I am being really strong and healthy instead by not getting any of these things.
I dunno. But I would VERY MUCH like to get a bit more base level energy back in my life.
What? gluten free? give up caffeine (am definitely cutting down) more yoga? more rest? HOLIDAY??????? (mmmmm yes please! - somewhere hot and sunny!!)

Your plans sound perfect! (holiday, yes please!) Good luck on the gluten-free, I have heard a lot of good things about it. A cousin of mine is a gluten-free chef in America - she has some seriously yum recipes on her website http://royaltemptations.com/blog - not sure if will be any use to you but thought I'd share just in cases!
Hope you feel a bit more energised soon :) xxx
{p.s. thanks for the comment on my caffeine quittin' - sooo helpful to know other people are in a similar position ;) }
Hi Moira
Fahed has been gluten free for just a few days and already I can notice the difference. Maybe give it a try for a few days and see how you feel?
