Default calmer attitude

I have noticed in the 7 weeks that I have been on Atkins that my mood is much better. Things at work (and home!) don't seem to "ruffle my feathers" as much as they used to. I seem to be able to think clearer and I am a happier person. Has anyone else noticed this effect?

Thumbs up Re: calmer attitude

A lot of people have noticed that.
My mood has in general been better since starting this WOE.
I don't get that desperately hungry gnawing feeling any more.

Meal times are easier if food is running late.
Also losing the weight makes you feel good.

My husband is a great guy but his moods used to jump up and down. Since we've been on this WOL for over a year his moods are much steadier. Even he noticed. I think it's due to maintaining a steady blood sugar level. One more great thing about Atkins!

Default Re: calmer attitude

It's got everything to do with having stable blood sugar episodes. I find that I used to get quite anxious, and it was just because I'd go too long between meals.
Life is much better now.

Yes, its true! And if you're exercising (and it IS "non-negotiable"!) you feel even better!!

VIVA LA ATKINS!

Life is better off the evil carbage and sugar roller coaster. I feel I'm more accountable for my moods now and not such a hapless victim.
