fixed

I have been a mess for a while. It is hard to say what my "normal" is because things have never quite been right with me. I could expound on this, but I want to focus on the past few months.

I was thrilled to start my new job. But about 3 weeks in, I just started feeling crappy. This puts us at the 2nd week of september. I was fatigued and depressed and just unfocused. I tried all my normal stuff---getting good rest, trying to relax outside of work, trying to alter my nap schedule, eating better....nothing was working....and i was getting sick a lot---and my muscles ached.

At my family's insistence, I got my vitamin D level checked--and i was DEATHLY low---ok, maybe not deathly--but i was at about 17 whatevers when 32 whatevers is what you need to feel ok and 50 whatevers is what you need to feel good. Anything lower than 32 will make you ill and the FDA (or vitamin council or something) is thinking of upping the rec for vitamin D.

here is a link to a good article:

but it might be the reason i have been so blah--and not losing any weight though i have tried for a while now. I will not bore you with how happy this makes me....but if this is really the reason I have been so off for the past few months---maybe even the reason i have been off for the past few years--I should be right as rain in 2 weeks under my new vitamin regime. I am thrilled--heck--this might even just have a placebo effect on me---but whatever works, right?
