Recently it has been calculating my glycogen spill over weight with around 86% accuracy. All going based on very very accurate averages. Averages like my tdee, fully depleted weights & relative spill over weights, active glucose & training glucose burn rates as well as sedentary, etc.

This has helped me tremendously to be able to eat carbs to refeed for training without spilling over & causing elevated levels of inflammatoin, glycation or advanced glycation end products, oxidative stress, insulin resistance, de novo lipogensisis, puffiness from water retention, gut dysbiosis & fermentation, hormonal imbalances, etc.

So for instance, with 86% accuracy, I'll be able to wake up tomorrow, see my morning weight, know relatively how much glycogen I'm holding on to, know based on former intakes when my glycogen will fully saturate from past intakes relative to carb-energy balance so that I can modify the current days intake to fit. Today I woke up holding on to around 2.2lbs of water & it was pretty consistent with my other predictive calculations so I decided to do my strength training session fasted & sure enough, my glycogen topped off from a former refeed day around the time that I predicted it would. So no spill over. Then after my workout, I simply ate an amount of carbs that would last me around 20-30hours of sedentary movement so that I will be able to remain fasted & not adrenal for a good period of time.

I have done a lot in both my main residence and my summer house. I build two decks and a set of front steps. I used plastic decking that will look good forever. I replaced my sump pump, I also seal coated my garage floor, When i had a new addition built I did the electrical work myself, I replaced all the hollow core doors with 6 panel doors and replaced all the baseboard radiators. I also redid two bathrooms with new sinks , vanities, floors, and toilets. I am sure there were other things I have done as well.

I used to react very easily and be quite impulsive I changed that thanks to my old best friend who told me that sometimes I react and take an action without finding out the whole story and that made me realise I should be patient and also I should think twice or thrice before I do something. Impulsiveness makes you do stupid things 😭

Also, since the last week I started sleeping at midnight and I've been finally getting 8 hours of sleep that I wasn't getting for 3 years. Now even 8 hours of sleep doesn't feel enough, lol. I've also started taking multivitamins again, drinking milk and eating fruits everyday again after I got my test reports which explained why I've been getting so sick and feeling drained last few months.

Other than that, I've recently started working on my issue which my close friends and my partner kept on telling me about. My issue was worrying a lot about others and putting their needs, what they expect and how they feel over mine, always- even if they kept giving me hard time. My loved ones told me that they get I'm a caring person but if I want to keep helping people and keep being there, I also need to think about me and my needs too and that I shouldn't feel guilty about it as I need to be emotionally and physically healthy too before I could look after others. So, I've learned it's okay to also think about yourself sometimes because looking after yourself is important too.

Mentally I've improved a lot. Those therapy sessions have helped me become more secure whereas before I had anxious attachment style.

But I don't remember doing any improvement for myself  lol. I can see areas of my life that have improved over time though. Like, my communication has improved, my relationships have improved, my relation to the world improved. My knowledge, my analysis, my emotional balance, my drawing skills, my tastes in clothing and probably other things I don't think about. They have improved. Me? I'm just living 💅🏼

It's been more in thinking than anything else. I'm more at peace with things now than I was before.

And for what it's worth, my wife, my trainer, and some friends have observed that my chest and arms appear to be beefed up a little more than times prior 💪🏋‍♂️

I took a bath and shaved. I also cut my hair and all at the same time last week. Shaved the back of my neck too. I need to shave my back. When I started going bald it began to reappear on my back. 🫩
