Food Schedule: I wrote that I am to update this when I finish fitness consultation. Friday and saturday remained the same generally in any case so I'm updating today My goal is to change to raising body fat and muscle mass. so because I already ordered the food I'm still not changing nutrition to include more proteins, but for now I'll start with leaving the calories as is. So here's the change: Apples and oranges alternating, at orange days no cabbage -Dates 60g each day, not just bike ride (Will need to cook) -Nuts remain as is -Carrots 3 -Peanut butter 30g That's it for now. to be reviewed on 21.01

Today i am to repeat a workout in the morning and must see how it works, Keepi0ng those two factors in mind Food Schedule update (12.01- 25.01) Weight One earlier 26.12 09 35 in them orning 57.4 kg before workout Latest weight 8.1 12 15 in afternoon 56.2 kg after breakfast before workout -On fridays and saturdays as earlier: Nuts 50 almonds 40 Walntus Peanut butter 60g dates 60g (This was 80g as plannned earlier for saturdays but i think 60 is enough) 2-3 carrots in contrast to usual dy's 2 Apple and orange -On regular days Nuts one meal with 20 anuts 25 almnds instead of two No peanut butter Alternating Oranges and apples. On orange days omitting cabbage I may still update this after fitness consultation today, but tht's the general outline to have 2700 caloriessconsumed instead of 3000 becase i'm planning to bike less nd do ust a 2 our calisthenics workout, while on weekends do bike riding By the way if I am not doing a bike ride on a friday, it ill be a consumptionn of a regular day. If extreme feelings of hunger occur after 1 week, I reserve myself the right to readjust it back to 3000 cals on 18.01 (Thursday) and again today after fitness consultation

Even if I see I'm not meeting my other goals like Pomodoros. That is in order that I make it on time for doing dishes afterwards and have time for visualization.

But I definitely do. -A workout of 2 hours right after coming back from doc appointment, despite being hallf an hour out of timframe there P.S. One small last note 1 Thing I could do better -Ask for a work plan two days in advance. So on Tuesday, ask for the schedule for Thursday so that I'll plan Thursday on Wednesday morning. Notes: I ate very quickly for about 15 mnutes including food prep 'till 7 pm, then, being extra sleepy retired to bed after just 4 pomodoros at 8 pm without even taking my clothes off and over the blanket, and woke up at 3 am and have been laying in bed for an hour thinking how to not repeat this terrible mistake. I do wish to say that if I'm being asked for 7 hours at the jb, I'll allow myseelf 8 pomodoros, but only if they ask. I do not give myself permission to ask for more than 6 hours as of now. And if I will wish to change that, I will be required to write it here in an entry a day in advance. On the rest of the days, the 3 main tasks I want to accomplish is 1. 6 hours on the job, 2. 10 pomodoros 3. 2 hour workout (Including 20 minute shower) If I play my cards right I shold still have half an hour left eachh day for miscallaneous stuff. Today it shall be Cooking of lentils and order of groceries + One more thing to note is tha now the plan is to do deliveries only on weekends, and so we'll see how hat affects my hand dryness. Bring it on life! I'm ready for the challenge of a new job, and am ready for the pain this change takes! Now is the time to prove the truth in these words. (I'm mostly referring to my 4-Pomodoro day and not allowing it to become a habit!) β€œChange is the only constant in life,” Attributed to Heraclitus throughout Google. P.S. Look for more private blood test options to tst my B12 before switching back to chlorella, even though I have it t home. S that I may get my B12 picture now, and another one in half a year from now. +125$ is too much, so I want t do a market reseach and see if I can get it at bout 25$ , if not, possibly switch to another health insurance or send mails to ask for partial pay. for a B12 test

Pondering Causes of Hand Dryness: It seems that the cause of dry cracking hands for me is digestion-related. I eat large meals... And then with little break go on the bike... It was quite confirmed by the fact that the dryness eased a little after 3-4 hours just when digestion was supposed to end. However, it is difficult to tell since the hands were already cracked, and for that reason even if the dryness was reduced, the pain would persist. -Checking out glasses, even though no order yet (They don't ship to Israel + it seems it might have a problem to be used along with my pollution mask. I'll need to send it as a question to the company. -Finishing video sync 1 Thing I could do better -Make three hor brakes between deliveries and meals Out of time frame: Skipped, as planned if out of timeframe ironically.

So writing workuts as taking 1hr 45 mn is key, instead of 1 hr 30 minutes. A timeframe I know I'm getting out of. Out of time frame: Skipped, as planned if out of timeframe

  23. Great work being honest with yourself and seeing how it's just a replacement and cutting it down. I see that a repeating occurrence is that you try to mindfully listen and it doesn't work. I'm also a fan of cutting things out completely because for me it also doesn't work and I believe it is the same for most people. On that one, I'd like to say I have continuously been having an Audible yearly membership (two books a month, and I listen to the books currently during meal prep. about 40-60 minutes a day. I love this habit, would you opt for that one? Or would you rather keep the silence completely? Considering what I said earlier, I believe it might be a place where you are tricking yourself a bit, especially considering what you wrote regarding the "Not deciding ahead of time how much I should play. If you haven't decided, how could you tell specifically you're adhering to your plan and how could the graph be flat? It is possible you've let yourself a bit off the hook here, give it a little thought and see if you need readjusting (Just a thought here, I might be completely wrong of course) I myself quit cold turkey, but if you want to keep it in some amount here mindfully and set a definite clear boundary, it might work for you. Even when I talked to my brother about games yesterday, I felt it was distracting our conversation from real more important issues and just an escape from reality, which I would rather not have, even as a fundament for social gatherings. In fact, at my current time in life, I am completely comfortable with omitting about 95% of social encounters, especially because they are surrounded by this sort of "Reality evading activities" Just as gaming -This is a pain-avoiding activity. Instead of "Improving upon pain" activity (I've gathered these terms from MArk manson's books. Either The subtle art of not giving a fu** or Everything is fu**ed I see you understand this and are already fighting, but again I'd opt for not doing this at all. (But I guess for me it's easy to say since I never dropped into this habit in the first place. The most I drank was 3 cups of wine I think, and in total, maybe I drank alcohol 3-5 times in my life, including beer. (I'm 25 btw)
  24. Awesome solution. Proud of you.

If it were earlier she'd probably have less excuses to ask e to move it. Finish 10th pomodoro before going home as planned and nt taking a shower which resulted in doing only 9 pomodoros total that day Out of time frame: Skipped (As planned if i'm out of timeframe) Tasks reduced Skipped (As planned if i'm out of timeframe)
