Food Affects Mood...

For the past week or so, I have finally been cooking my own meals instead of eating out (we have been moving). I have noticed my moods have been stable during this time as well. Yesterday we brought Krispy Kreme donuts into the house as a treat for the kids...yea...for "the kids." Anyways, today I ate leftover donuts for a snack and then proceeded through my afternoon without anymore nourishment. I left the house to do some work this evening at my office without eating dinner. And then when I was waiting to pick up one of the kids from an activity I had 20 minutes to spare and drove through McDonald's because I was starving! Now I am grumpy...just plain grumpy. And I know why.

When you eat healthy foods, you feel good. When you eat unhealthy food, you don't feel good. It's as simple as that.
