madriley, I have some exacerbating conditions that cause fatigue, so my experience is probably not a good one to use as a guide. I still get worn out, though not so that I can't (if I need to) keep going.
Having said that, I'd say about two months in, I could look back and see a significant improvement in my motivation. Endurance took longer, but like I said, there were other things working against me. Bottom line is that it's hard to gauge improvement day to day in anything but acute symptoms. Believe that it's getting better, and with a little time under your belt, you'll be able to look back and see the improvement.
Hang in there!
Peace & Love,
