What you are describing is “pacing”. I went to a counselor for emotional support when all this started and she actually specialized in pain management. She taught me about pacing myself and how I could get more done and have better quality of life if I made a point to break up tasks and take frequent rest periods!I'm gonna seem out of place here because I'm 23 but I have a joint disorder that makes my joints not cooperate with me. They hurt, pop out of place, etc and I constantly fight horrible fatigue.
I try to do a little stuff, then rest. So if I know today I need to feed, water, clean pens, buy feed, etc, then in the morning I might buy feed then rest for a few hours. Then unload the feed and rest. Then clean and feed. I avoid lifting bales of hay and use a furniture dolly instead but I still carry feed sacks on my shoulder one at a time.
If you hurt too badly or become overly fatigued rest. Finish the task tomorrow if it's a large task like cleaning a coop. I don't keep as many as you do, so I have less to maintain. I have serama, which are manageable for me, and keep them inside. I can work with them pretty much anytime. I do have a small outside flock of bantam cochins and I clean the pen on nice days and try to stay hydrated. Don't kneel, sit on a stool- I get stuck down there!
The key too is that the diet has to be sustainable.Where I have a major problem with diets like Paleo is that most of these 'healthy' diets include the use of nuts a lot in the meal plans. I have an allergy to tree nuts. Lots of GI upset, nausea and diarrhea even with small amounts of nuts. I can sneak by a little coconut oil but if I do too much of that I will truly feel it in a most unpleasant way.
I do seem to feel my best on the low carb higher protein diet though. Problem is I love my carbs. I'm to the point with it all tho that I can't afford NOT to stick with it this time around. Especially with the confirmation of the fact that I do have an inflammatory joint disease.
