I live within the limits. Like Margaret said, I listen to my body. Once in a while I feel the need to power thru and ignore my body and I always regret it. Always. To each their own, though. 😘💚🩷

If anyone experiences P.E.M., I think they need to take a middle path with this and apply the approach called pacing, even without a confirmed diagnosis of ME/CFS.
"Staying within the “energy envelope,” or pacing, is one way a person with ME/CFS can help mitigate PEM. Avoiding activities which will place too great a strain on the body's ability to produce adequate ATP is a key strategy of pacing, but adequate rest is equally as important."

ATP = Adenosine triphosphate is a nucleotide that provides energy to drive and support many processes in living cells, such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, and chemical synthesis.

Hi Annie when u get like that you rest forget about everything else, listen 2 yr body lass, I do.

Anne Elliot... pacing is like only staying active for a certain space of time with rest in between, or using a fitness watch and keeping heartrate below 100?

@Annie2PO That's a great question and one that I'm not qualified to answer as I'm still learning.
