0:50 Nobody: Some Random Blue Guy: *sleeps in between two pillows*
When I was a teenager and in my early 20’s I used to eat fast food, processed foods (chips, candy, ramen noodles), and sugary drinks. I used to feel awful mentally, physically, and emotionally. After I got pregnant I decided I wanted to change my diet to more healthier foods to help the developing baby. I found that eating right and exercising I felt better and really helped my body adjust to my new life as a mother, plus the baby was so healthy. We still continue to eat healthy to this day

Essentially, sugar was negatively affecting my mood... now, I'm pretty much happy all the time, even on gloomy days!
