Increased Productivity

January 05, 2007

If you go off sugar your life will become far more productive and focused. For one thing, you’ll have to deal with stress and problems by doing something other than self destructive sugar binging.

After several months pass and you stop eating sweets and replace the sugary stuff with veggies and healthy foods, you’re whole physiology changes for the better. Better eating turns into better thinking. You’ll start to deal with problems in different ways and you’ll have the energy to follow through on long term tasks (such as exercising).

Which is more important, eating sweets or accomplishing your dreams?

Well, I’ve discovered you have a lot more willpower than me. I’ve fallen off the wagon. On saturday I felt really ill and spent all day in bed so by the time I woke up I was really hungry and didn’t feel like cooking. So I ate two pieces of chocolate cheesecake for dinner. The weird thing is it didn’t taste all that good (although I did find myslef thinking perhaps I should just have bought more expensive cheesecake…) And since then I’ve had a couple of pieces of chocolate. I guess it could have been worse but I still feel like I let myslef down. I was doing so well! Anyway I’m back on it and I’m hoping I haven’t destroyed all my hard work. I’m going to try and do some exercise today as well. I haven’t done any in months and I keep falling asleep in the middle of the day. I’m hoping it might help my energy levels.

I find it really sad that people want to feed you sweets when you’re being helathy, but I guess society is used to sugar and it’s not really viewed as being addictive.

Keep up the good work. I’m going to have muesli and yoghurt for breakfast so I’m hoping I’ll get back on track this week.

If you fall off the wagon you can get right back on. It will break your momentum for sure, but it’s not the end of the world. Don’t let it be the end of your challenge! Just keep on going!
