Habit Hoarding (Sometimes You Need To Sacrifice)

When I was into a serious drug addiction, I would stack my addictions. I would hold drug sessions, take acid, combine it with a space cake, XTC, joints, cigarettes, alcohol, eat junkfood and watch hyperstimulating media like horror movies. The tendency is to push it as far as you can take it. Some people have multiple screens on their desk, playing YouTube, playing music or podcasts, while having a screen for studying or work, while gaming and vaping and drinking energy drinks. Add weed and alcohol after 18h00. Or make that 16h00. People accumulate habits that they don't want to let go of. Addiction expert Anne Lembke says you can get addicted to anything.

Are You A Dipper? (Weight Loss Advice)

From a random YouTube suggestion I learned something about myself that was a game changer for my weight loss journey. All hail the algorithm.  For the record: I'm still fat, but I am slowly losing weight and have lost 18kg (± 40 pounds) since I started this journey three years ago. It was a struggle, but I am now on a steady path. The important nugget of science is that about 1/4 of the human population experience a dip in their blood sugar about two hours after eating. This leads to snacking and overeating and obesity. I am a 25 percenter. I am a dipper. With mindfulness I am aware of this, and I know that if I ride out the hunger spike (surf the urge) it will subside in a while, and I won't be hungry anymore. If I give into it, I will get hungry again every 2 hours, and become a circus freak. I eat 3 healthy meals per day, no snacking. I try to eat between 07h00-08h00, 12h00-13h00 and 18h00-19h00. I drink only tea and water in between.  Click here for my post on how to contr...
