I'm doing 15 things
I used to eat at night before bed. I used to worry that I would wake up hungry and not sleep well. Now I just eat nuts and drink water or maybe milk and avoid sugar and just about anything else. In the morning I wake up with an appetite. I eat a big breakfast and the same amount at lunchtime, then I eat less at dinner. I get distracted if I’m hungry, but you can train your body not to expect to be stuffing it with food at all hours. Eating a lot of fruits and grains and protein in the morning gives me energy, which I use to run around, mtn bike, get things done in the morning, then I’m fitter and in a better mood the rest of the day. One thing I don’t worry about is complicated rules for what to eat and what not to eat. With respect to diet, I try to observe how different food at different times and under different conditions makes me feel over the next few hours, and use memory and experience - and intuition - as a guide.

good habit
3 years ago
I started doing this after my mother got (she’s now beaten it) breast cancer.
Is it strange that giving blood correlates in the US with having a college degree, being fit, eating well, earning a relatively high income, etc?
restless leg syndrome
3 years ago
I have restless leg syndrome, a problem that prevents the nervous system from allowing me to sleep properly. I had to focus my daily habits on getting rest. That started with eliminating coffee past morning and chocolate past afternoon, and doing a lot of stretching, meditation, breathing, or yoga in the morning and at night.
