Listen to Your Body

Collapse in bed and slept like dead for hours.
Wonder if someone slipped a big sleeping pill in my food.
I swear I didn't sleep out of laziness, I was just so energy-less that I literally collapsed on my bed.
Tried to figure out the reason for my fatigue these 2 days, because I don't want it to get in the way with my work.
Busy? Sure yes, everybody is.
Stress? Not that much, I love what I'm doing, my biggest stressor at the moment is perhaps not work.
Sleep deprivation? Sure I don't get 12 hours of sleep, but I'm still fine with half of it.
Loss of iron and other nutrients after period? Could be, but I didn't go for a check-up.

The most likely cause would be my vitamin B deficiency/
I just stopped my vitamin B tablets for 2 days and symptoms of vitamin B deficiency start to reappear already.
Fatigue, depressed moods, sugar cravings, lack of concentration: all check.
Guess it's time to take vitamins again.

I don't wanna say 'your body is your sacred temple'.
But don't take it for granted.
Our bodies do speak to us and give us signs, just that most of the time we either do not catch these signs or just neglect them.
As I always say: love life as hard as you possibly can.
The first thing to do: love yourself first, both physically and psychologically.
To eat right, exercise, get enough rest and release stress are big lessons that I'm learning. (like everyone else)
Not easy because I sort of lack determination in dieting and workouts, but still, at least I acknowledge the fact that I have much room for improvement.

Time to take my specially-for-women-all-vitamins-in-1 big tablet.
And hopefully do some catching up with my work progress.
Ok, enough about me and my body for today.
Listen to your body, treat him/her right.
Last but not least, I wish you good health.

I'm gonna wake up fresh and energetic tomorrow.
Tomorrow's gonna be a productive day. : )

Love,
