First Blog in a long time. I know.
It seems I've been talking about this a lot lately to my clients, and I want to go more in depth with it.
Mood takes over control of everything.
Mood is controlled by stress as well.
Your meal plan can and will change your mood.
People ask a lot; what is the perfect diet? My answer is always "The one you can adhere to."
Most people, when on an "ideal/perfect" diet, their mood isn't changed TOO much. However, when people start pushing the limit, or really let their body goals become their #1 goal, they can bite off more than they can chew.
Now they're cranky. They're making others around them cranky too. They're tired. They're hungry. They're starting to scowl. They realize their social life is impeded more than they like. They're...etc.
Watch for this. Not everyone is a superhero and can follow a "perfect/ideal" meal plan forever, let alone for long.
I've talked about social circle, that's huge. If others are doing it with you, you're more opt to succeed because you're on the same team.
However, the reverse works too. Aka emotional eating or things along those lines. People get stressed out, or something else starts effecting your mood (break up, job loss, tragic situation) and now your meal plan suffers too. You might either revert to old ways (ie. eating badly, not eating at all, timing varying) or lose sight completely.
THIS HAS TO BE WATCHED FOR.
You can watch for this yourself, or have some close friends watch it for you.
Mood is everything. When you're in a bad mood, you won't be performing optimally in all aspects. If you are, email me and a lot of others your secret.
Mood Controls Success.
