Change Your Diet

Eating lots of protein is essential for staving off fatigue, especially early in the day when your cortisol levels are high.

• Breakfast: eat eggs, a slice of ham or add protein powder to your oatmeal. Otherwise, you eat only carbohydrates and you'll crash early.
• Eat every three to four hours.Snacks like fruit and nuts, string cheese, a couple of scoops of cottage cheese or even beef jerky will satiate your hunger and boost energy levels.
