Good morning! 
It's been so wonderful, this opportunity, to share insight with you all! I've talked to a handful of folks over the past day asking what they can do to have more energy & to feel better about themselves. 
For me, I believe the key is to ACTUALLY desire a change & time management. I'm the gal who thinks making a salad takes far too long, and for that, I think I went about 6 months or so without a good amount of GREENS! How can I be too busy to cut up some vegetables? Wow. But I realized, when I give up on healthier meals and choose pasta or quesadillas every time, once I'm done with dinner... where am I? I'm sitting on the couch doing nothing. So why couldn't I put all that time into a healthier meal for my husband and I? 
That's why I say an ACTUAL DESIRE is what this takes. I, for a long time, wanted to feel better.... but just feeling to do something is quite different than actually doing something. 
I chatted with my beautiful sister this morning & encouraged her to pre-cut fruits & veggies for salads, smoothies, juices or just snacking. My sister has a one year old & I can't imagine how that affects the time to really get most of her tasks accomplished. So in down town, cut up some fruits and vegetables while you have 20-45 minutes free. That way everything is ready to go for you!
I honestly need to wake up earlier than I do to have an energy filling "meal". I had a bowl of whole-grain, fiber-filled cereal topped with blueberries this morning, although this isn't a bad choice, I prefer a juice in the morning. It gives me a boost that nothing else can quite give me, EVEN COFFEE!
