I feel like I have way less energy now that I work from home than I did when I was working 9 hour days at the office. I don't understand...

There could be a lot of factors: diet, exercise (even walking around the office can make a difference), time away from kids... and if you’re an extrovert, you get energy from spending time with people. And even if you’re an introvert, it still goes against human nature to spend so much time away from people

Could also be low level depression. I've had it since I was a kid.

I find that when I'm using a lot of energy daily, I habituate to having that amount of energy. Now that I don't need to use as much (on commuting, being at the office, etc), I find I have less available to me.

For what it is worth, I also work from home -kids moved out, wife works so I think for me work at home is more intense. So for that reason soon after I started W@H I made a point to get outside everyday and walk rain or shine for 30-40 minutes. Also have a workout regime I do at home 30 min or so 2/3 times per week - sit-ups, push-ups, etc. Finally, I also bought a light therapy lamp I use during the winter only - 30 min in the morning to balance seratonin and melatonin levels - promotes good sleep. Sounds like a lot but really not - works for me.
