Inspired to Change Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I've seen positive changes with Whole 30, but am disappointed that I still haven't gotten the Tiger Blood energy boost. Is that normal to be at Day 20 and still have such low energy? What tips do you have that could help me gain energy. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators ShannonM816 Posted August 23, 2015 Moderators Share Posted August 23, 2015 It's hard to say what you should change without knowing what you're doing. Could you give us a couple of days worth of typical food, including approximate serving sizes, water intake, sleep, exercise and anything else that seems relevant (like nursing, chasing a toddler all day, longstanding chronic condition)? In general, some issues we see are people not eating enough in general, not eating enough fat, not having at least one serving of starchy vegetables each day, not drinking enough water, not salting their food -- and those are just food related. If you're not sleeping, exercising too much, or have a lot of stress in your life, food may not be enough to really change things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfustos Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I agree with ShannonM816- It's also about your stress, water intake, salt intake (was a huge one for me) and sleep. Women normally naturally need more sleep then men (I read in a study). Don't let your hubby tell you otherwise - like mine tries to. Good luck. Keep us posted.

northwoodsmom8 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I also have extremely low energy [although today is day 1 for me] but my doctor just found me VERY low in vitamin D and B12. I'm taking a liquid D and doing B12 shots--I'm so hoping that I'll start getting some energy. It might be worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
