Since I started limited my carbs on sunday, my mind has been much clearer. No longer in a sweets and bread "fog"
ANYONE else experience this? or I am kinda weird? :huh:

    Yep I know exactly what you mean! Ive always had issues with bread making me feel sick and bloated, but I just feel clearer in my head - I think this is because Im not getting bogged down with rubbish - chips, white bread etc.
    I feel a lot clearer its great :)

    Yup, less carbs = more fat = clearer mind.

    Our body needs fat, our brains are mostly fat.

    I'm a fat fan, can you tell? :)

    Also less food anxiety ... For me I just avoid the processed stuff, sugars, grains, legume and eat the rest, simple.

    Calories? Meh ...

    Oh wow I can attest! Not only is my brain functioning WAY better... when I get hungry or low on fuel, I start to stutter and can't think straight. FINALLY I know how to tell when I am hungry - the right way!
  • Yes, definitely! Also much calmer overall...no mood swings. When I start to yawn, I know it's time to refuel...
