hey, everybody

Well, i'm about 5,10 225pounds 19years of age. I work 16 hour shifts alot so i rarely have time to practice fitness all tho my job has worked off 8 pounds already.. but when i do have free time i'm always sooo sleepy i cant do much is there any way i could work around this other then sleep my life away?

16 hour shift plus travel time to and from work leaves no time other than sleeping imho

hope the money is worth it

ty for that great advice..

sorry, I don't normally post when I don't have a real answer but I would hate for anyone to feel they were being ignored.

I don't know if you have noticed it yet but Atkins really gets rid of lethargy. After the initial slump, you should be super energetic without needing to nap or anything. And when you sleep, you should completely conk out. I have weirder dreams too.
And my memory improves.
Have you noticed this at all?

What do you do for a living? Sounds like how I felt when I was waiting tables...looong days of running around, on your feet, no desire to exercise when you FINALLY get home.

My advice is to try and make time for some exercise that helps you relax. IF you are, in fact, waiting tables, you get tons of walking done at work. Don't worry about coming home and running. Try things off of your feet- some strength training, yoga, pilates. Yoga and pilates are nice because they help you relax as well. I do yoga before bed and it really helps me sleep...which might even help with being tired all the time!

Good luck to you, lethargy sucks.

Weird dreams? had quite a few recently, didn't know I could blame it on Atkins though!!! :P

working and doing exercise are not the same, so my advice is the same to ntbubbles, you shoule make time for some exerise.
