20.11-4.12 food schedule update, not including 4.12
Everything remains the same, but I´ll look for sesame seeds and kale in the store, if i find them at reasonable price, replace half of the tahini with 40g kale or half of tahini with 16g sesame seeds. Also in the case i do take kale, add 15 g almonds instead of the 15g tahini. Once the walnuts run out they are to be replaced with chia and flax as before and 10 grams of almonds on top.

Remarks after back from store:
-15g sesame seeds are to be replaced with 15g tahini, however when sesame seeds run out, go back to 33g tahini.
-When old tomatoes run out go back to 1 tomato per day

clarification: on fast days coconut oil is as in running days 30g so it'sspread between day before and day after

3 Things I did well no matter how small
-Morning run
-Moved lentils to breakfast as planned
-15 minutes in sun

1 thing I could do  better
-The second day in a row that I snooze my alarm and lose about an hour of the day because of it. Should wake up with first alarm, that discomfort is going to be endured anyway, so better sooner rather than later.

Free text:
It seems I'm developing an habit of dropping to sleep after dinner without setting an alarm clock and this is taking control of my next day, because I often do not have the 8 hours of sleep because of it which affects my feeling in the morning.

This dropping to sleep happens in part because my stomach is overloaded and in other part because i feel it's cold in the room which actually may be a result of the stomach overload.

a third thing which contributes is the challenges with my creative work, which feels like I'm stumbling in one place. But I do not believe that. Even if I'm just staring at the screen that's progress. Gotta stay hard

One more thing, today It was the first time I woke up from my evening doze off after 23:15 which technically means I was in bed before 23:15 so at least some rest there, but it meant I'm doing everything extra "at ease" since now I had no deadline to tend to.

So I took the unplanned whim to masturbate after shower. Which is actually something I needed to do for a long time, I think I hadn't masturbated in 3 months.

Though it seems it had some sort of black dots, whichmight be because I didn't masturbate for so long. It might also be because I do vigorous workouts, and hadn't changed my shoes in a wle, which yet again puts a lot of impact on the torso organs. Worries me a bit, but I've already ordered new shoes... And it's one time so I wouldn't ring all the alarms just yet about it.

Would wait a week longer and masturbate again hopefully this time in a disciplined and planned manner (Thursday evening would be good I believe

Those are just some free thoughts, and I'm grateful for having a 10 minute habit devoted to my motivation, during which I got to listen to Goggins today, as these changes occur.

As you've seen I've move the lentils to breakfast so I'm trying things out. in two days or so I'd try to move some of the quinoa t breakfast too if that doesn't reduce the sleepiness and eczema attacks.

Though I think the true reason is just that I eat another meal on a stomach that still didn't finish digesting... But I really don't know how to avoid that, since I do a workout and have a 4 hour break from eating before sleep which leaves 9 hours to take in three meals at best....

Lets let the subconscious work over this free text a bit.

Thank you for listening to me today Mr. Journal, and to you the reader for continuing to do your best in life. (Hopefully 🙂 )

Food schedule update 4.12-18.12 not including 18.12 Everything remains the same apart for a possible updates of how many tomatoes I'll eat and other stock problems, which I'll update after the trip to the store.

Remarks for the next iteration I'd like to get to the doc's officeto weig myself + find some solution for my evening sleepiness, so possibly do a nutrition consultation or just brainstorm this by myself. Something has to change in this regard.


Some notes regarding experiments in this iteratin
For today  just continue with the lentils in the morning experiment. After that I'll switch the quinoa from lunch to breakfast too I guess, we'll see about that, in any case the meals in which i eat the food are a flexibility that I allow in the schedule so that is not really critical for the "plan"

-When I saw that it takes e too much time to write to my accountability partner, calling him
-10 pomodoros
-Withdrawing to ed at around 23 15 despite having eaten a very large meal beforehand

1 thing I could do  better

-Finished publishing blog post and workbook
-8 pomodoros
-listening to audiobook during washing of dishes in the morning even though I was not habitually eating breakfast

1 thing I could do  better
-Start evening routine 1 hour before bed, so that I'd have the initially scheduled time for the planning of the next day at the very least, since it seems the weekly plan is not that detailed and i do not follow it to the T so gotta dial it down a bit to at least daily, s that I'll start restoring trust in myself

3 Things I did well no matter how small
-put pants on as planned yesterday, even though I dosed off nonetheless.

-Planned 08.12 yet again, even though it's at night

1 thing I could do  better
-Turn david goggins video on when I feel the urge to sleep. In the long term I just must tend to a nutritionist. I'm messing up my health with this bulk eating together, I'm quite sure of it.

-again going out to the sun for 20 minutes 

1 Thing I could do  better
-get into sheer quickly at 19:00 to manage to have enough time for planning tomorrow, Instead I dragged it out and went very slowly.
