Hey Guys,

In preparation for the Chicago Marathon next week, I decided to give myself a strict meal plan while I get down to the last 6 weeks of training. I am a personal chef and do this for clients anyhow, so I figured I would do one for myself. What I am noticing is how much my body is adjusting to it. I am moody and irritated, not because I am hungry, because I eat A LOT because I burn A LOT. My systems are off, I'm just feeling like this isn't a good idea anymore. It's so much harder to evaluate yourself in place of your clients. Am I still adjusting to all this? Is this normal?

    What's different about your new meal plan? Without knowing what you ate before and what you're eating now, it's going to be difficult for anyone to know whether or not your reaction is normal.

    Did you cut carbs a lot? That would cause you to be irritable and moody.

    Can't you find a marathon training schedule meal plan?
