Day 6 without games.
Yesterday the item I ordered arrived and it was the correct one. It fits, but I need one more small piece to make everything work properly. I spent part of the evening searching for the right part and it is already on the way. I’m a bit excited about it. If everything works as intended, it will be a small win at home and something I can be proud of fixing myself.
Yesterday was also an eye opener on the physical side. My mind is improving, but my body clearly needs to follow. More than a year ago I was moving more, running, and eating better. I gained some weight lately and yesterday I had one of the worst carb crashes I have ever experienced. It was unpleasant and honestly a clear signal from my body to stop messing around.
So starting today, even without preparation, I’m fixing that. I want to work on insulin sensitivity again and lower the glucose load for a while. That means fewer starches and fried foods. I will not ban them forever, but they need to become exceptions rather than habits. I’m also looking into using a glucose meter like the Freestyle Libre at some point, especially when I reintroduce certain foods. I want actual numbers, not just feelings. My last blood test was recent, so I will do a new one in three months and hope for better results.
I also want to walk more, especially in nature. It does not need to be long. Humans are not made to stay indoors constantly, even though I genuinely enjoy being at home because it is cozy.
