 rant: whats wrong with me? no energy lately

The past two weeks since we have moved into our new house have been overall pretty good. I moved back to my hometown and most of my friends are still here. The july 4th weekend i drank once and since then i have been sleeping 12 hours a day and been soo tired all day.
I've tried altering my diet to more greens and cutting out the sugars and i don't drink caffiene or anything. Its been about 90% humidity and really fucking hot.
I haven't been my normal energized self and just sit around when i'm awake not doing shit because i haven't had a job and its too hot to work in teh garden. Finally today i felt a little bit better but now i've only been up 6 hours and can't force myself to stay up any longer.
Finally I got a job at the olive garden and start tomorrow, so what is wrong with me? I cant figure it out, and ideas/suggestions?

It is opening to or recieving the present moment, pleasant or unpleasant, just as it is,
without either clinging to it or rejecting it.

I'm sort of in the same boat.
I think it's the heat, or at least that's what I'm blaming my new laziness on.

annie and i both use ginsing. we take it BID (twice daily). the brand seems to matter quite a bit. i personally use "pharmacist ultimate" . I THINK you can get it at wal mart. but when i dont take it..after a few days its hard to get out of bed. in fact i get up better now with ginsing then ever before in my life...but im older too so maybe thats it?
also EXERCISE helps alot

I get the same way...I find myself re-energized by going hiking in a forest but since it's so hot where you live, that may not be possible. Sounds like you have a pretty good diet...but maybe you are missing something or eating too much of something. Have you tried a macrobiotic or ayurvedic diet? I have tried a billion different health food "diets" and those two seem to work the best for me (they're also the most ancient!)
Sometimes your body just needs extra sleep to fight off a bug....
or you may be getting too much sleep. In Ayurveda, we learn that we should wake up at a time specific to our body type. For mine, if I don't wake up early, I will be sluggish all day because I missed the energizing time of morning for myself.
And I agree with Odin, excercise helps a lot.
Good luck!

I know for me, when it gets really hot and humid i get really sluggish as well. Maybe you just need to rest, try taking some vitamins...

dehydration?
too hot, alot of sun, sex, yeah
all those can do you in.
also, you just moved,
any abnormal change in the weather or pressure from change of altitute/Atmospheric pressure
or all of the above could cause your body discomfort & its trying to adjust?
whenever its hot & humid, + Atmospheric pressure always gives me migraines.
mother nature effects us all, someway.
drink fluids high in electrolytes.

Not to alarm you, but sudden fatigue is symptomatic of mono, and a handful of other common STDs. I have a close friend who got it, and she described the exact same symptoms.
If you've done anything that could possibly have let you contract something (sharing a water bottle, even), I'd suggest you get yourself tested, especially if flu-like symptoms show up over the next week or so. If nothing else, it will put this out of your mind. 
In general, eat healthily, exercise, avoid drugs of all sorts for a while, and find something new and exciting to do.

i act like a big fat cat when it's hot...i just laze around. heat makes me do that. but once i get up and start doing stuff the energy kicks in. exercise is good for energy, but it's hard when it's so hot.
like some others have mentioned, a change of atmosphere such as moving can really drain you mentally. even though you may feel fine about it.
you say you have taken most of the sugars and caffeine out of your diet, that plays a role too. maybe your body is not totally used to not having those boosts of energy from sugar. try some cereal, i like basic 4. it's good for all day energy. you need complex carbohydrates for energy, like pasta and grains. which probably won't be a problem once you start working at the olive garden! i love the olive garden! good luck there.
