Day 274! I should be skinny already. Crap.
ok, 200.8 lbs.
The new approach is to gradually build habits and routines until I become a healthy eater. Each week, or so, I’m going to add a new wrinkle till I’m superpoweredrawveganimmortal.
This week, I cut out sugar and started “time-restricted eating.” Sugar is obvious. Time restricted eating is a slightly less extreme version of intermittent fasting. Right now I’m on 12 hour eating window. Anything that can be metabolized counts, so, coffee counts, caffeine has to be metabolized.
I’ll stay at this for a while, then try to narrow the window. I guess the 9 hour window is ideal, but that’s a lot harder than you think. Easy, if you don’t include coffee. Very hard if you do.
So, I’ve got to learn how to this first. Then i’ll learn how to do it better.
Not sure what next week has in store, but I’ll gradually add new routines or habits.
I think the list is something like (but subject to change)
Get rid of:
Refined Carbs, grains, rice, milk.
Add:
Veggies (80%) meat/protein/fat (20%) These numbers are probably all wrong, but i’ll learn as I go.
I guess the whole idea is to build gradually instead of a radical transformation. Changing habits is hard. I guess the question is to do all at once, identity change, or gradually. I guess it just depends on the situation and person at that time.
Smoking had to be all at once. I couldn’t ween myself off. But, then, that was the only change I made.
ok, onward. I’ll try to update more. It might help me.
All 200.8 lbs of me.
