Lack Of Exercise - Energy Level?

Ok.....I'm down 100lbs, I have had my measurements and I've lost a little bit more muscle than they wanted to by this stage, but its not bad. I haven't really done anything but some walking and swimming as far as exercises go. I just joined a gym to start doing weights 3times a week, this starts actually tomorrow. The question I have is that my energy level sucks lately, like for the last week. Before that I had plenty of energy. Are there peeks and valleys in regards to my energy level, and will that be more balanced once I have a "standardized" less sporatic exercise routine?

You may need to take in some more B-12. It really helps give you a boost of energy.

The exercise will definitely help with the energy level. Maybe you need some more protein? Also, the b12 will help too.

Great, thank you all. I am currently taking 1000mg B12 daily, should it be more than that??

What ever your taking, you have come a long way, and if you need a little down time, dont! Keep up the good work, and your not going to be able to sit a spell with all the girls a hollering to ya!
