Full of beans ..... or not?

Since starting, am just beginning week 6, I've been sleeping like a baby (7 / 8 hours, only getting up for the loo!). Everyone says they have bags of energy but, although I wake refreshed, by mid afternoon I'm flagging and could do with a nap which I never do. Is it just me? I'm guessing it's lack of calories, I'm not a great exerciser but am moving house soon so am constantly on the go. Any thoughts, advice, reassurance I'm normal please??!! xx

Im exactly the same!! No energy come afternoon i have 2 young sons so when the go for a nap around 2ish i usually do too!! By 8.30 im also ready for bed!!!! X

But is that new for you? I'm guessing with two little ones that's pretty normal for you!! I used to get 5 or 6 hours, midnight to 6ish but now I'm asleep by 11 latest and awake at 7 or so but yawning by early afternoon! x

Iv never been this tired... The boys keep my on my toes but iv never needed an afternoon nap and i used to go to bed about 11, i guess its a combo of the 450 cals plus the kids!!!! Xx

I know! Show me a happy fatty and I'll show you a liar! I was falling off the wagon too, for something sweet, which was never my thing, but I got some of the bars this week and they seem to be keeping the cravings in check. Only been since Tuesday though! xx
