    • Today, all of what remained from yesterday plus the same today, except for potatoes that are 300g and lentils 190g that I added. Also almonds are 165 g and not 175g and olive oil is 120g since this is a combination of today and yesterday. I forgot to write 60g yesterday Tomorrow once more I should revert to original schedule's limits. I'll write in the morning, and hopefully the two week plan already as I go to the store (Not today since it's Sunday and all the stores in the suroundings are closed)
    • Day 2. I was pretty blessed with a calm, chill day yesterday. Spent a lot of it outside just hanging out, intermittently praying, meditating, and chatting on Discord. I also wrote in my personal journal, read the daily reflection in Twenty-Four Hours a Day, and cooked a spaghetti dinner for my dad and I. Though it is day 2 of no gaming, I did not relapse in drinking (or use any drugs) so my sobriety day for my alcoholism did not change (May 23, 2016). There's an AA Discord server that's been really good over the past few years that I like to chat on/go to meetings on. Lots of folks to talk to at most hours of the day. I spent most of the summer inside, gaming a lot, so I'm enjoying getting outside for the tail-end of the season. It's good to see @wheatbiscuit and a few others still active on the forums. Though it's less immediate than chatting on a Discord server, I think the slower pace and more thoughtful nature of writing forum posts has its merits. You can take your time to organize and express your thoughts more, I find. I tried to reset my PC to clear off all the games a couple times, but it failed both. I ended up having to manually uninstall all the games on it. Originally I bought my PC to game and to try out a Linux distro. I might just remove Windows and make it a dedicated Linux box, likely a distro that doesn't support gaming as much. Or set it up as a dual-boot machine so I can have all three environments: MacOS, Linux, and Windows. We'll see. Maybe when I am more secure in my gaming sobriety I'll try my hand at development again. I did go to school for it back in the early part of the decade. There's been a couple butterflies that have been hanging out in the backyard a lot yesterday and today. White in colour, floating about the weed garden we have and the proper gardens of our back fence neighbours. And the crows and magpies have been slowly picking away at the cherries in our cherry tree. A nice cool breeze while I hang out in the shade, clear skies. It's pretty nice out here at the moment. I'll leave it there for now. Until the next one!
    • for the rest of the day 1 banana 1 apple 1 carrot 35g cabbage 175g almonds and 225g dates, depending on whether potatoes will be ready on time maybe will eat sme more dates and almonds if not ready on time so it's either 600g potatoes or 100g dates and 50g almonds ( If i don't fel sick before that =/
    • Today (23.8) I'm still allowed to eat all things that are left + try to get the same things I did in alicante in the shop, however if I don't find something make a decision on place and include it in the weekly/bi-weekly plan afterwards, according to what my apt. owner allows. (If I may use 2 fridges or not, if not I might need to buy for 1 week or something like this.
    • Entry 22.8 (Written on 23.8) Weeks until average life expectancy: 2764 (80th birthday)  Day 219: No Useless Videos Day 1051: Sticking to Food schedule Day 654: Eating Only between 06:30 and 19:00 (Last bite before 19:00) Day 32: Being in bed before 23:15 3 Things I did well, no matter how small  - Afternoon workout - Having asked a restaurant to keep my food again so that it doesn't spoil in the middle of the night. This time the other workers agreed. - Having asked my new host to take me from the airport which ended up saving some time. Sometimes when other people may help it's worth to ask it without having to fear I'll need to reciprocate. I would love to reciprocate if I may. As a saying goes that I heard in my highschool years "If you want to go fast - Go alone, If you want to go far - Go together" 1 Thing I could do better - Having held a little longer without dozing off at 20 00 and missing the teethbrushing. Also, no need for 2 showers in the plan any longer as I'm unlikely to sweat after the first one here in Munich (For that reason keep the workouts and showers at mid-day, not to have the whole day in between the morning shower and sleep, so that I save 1 shower.) However, I'd still like a day with two showers, because yesterday I avoided the second shower because of lack of discipline, although It was written in the schedule Gaming (Death, Slavery, Regret, Disease) - 5 Yan (Life, Individuality, Freedom, Purpose, Self-Fulfillment) - 220
