I just realized I probably have ME/CFS a few weeks back. Still working on a proper diagnosis.

I find it hard to pace. I keep looking for some signal from my body that I'm about to overdo it. What are good things to look for?

I did pick up a Garmin activity watch, hoping it would give me good signals. Mostly I try to keep my HR under 100 and stress (HRV) low, but maybe there are better ways to use this?

UPDATE: Just wanted to thank everyone for so many useful responses! Seeing the range in experiences is helpful for understanding how this can present.
