#ish version of my paper #dicebaby habit tracker

Trying to make all my make busy reports and graphs as ASCii and plaintext as possible.

Tweaking out #Nano’s syntax highlighting also helps.

My new family doc said I should lose a bit of weight and be on a mediterranean or DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension :/) diet.

So that was a nice excuse to make a meals logging #bash script and report.

(I confess Claude sorta assisted me with the bug making)

Or you could use an existing app like MyNetDiary. I like that they have nutritional info about a wide range of foods, and you can scan the barcode if you're eating anything from a package. I'm down 20 pounds since the fall, and I only started logging food to see what the nutrition is. Still, behaviour that is observed will frequently change. I also credit my #AppleWatch for getting me off my butt every hour, and gradually, I've rebuilt an exercise habit.

@EllenInEdmonton Sorry, I have to circle back and read things fully sometimes…. congratulates on your fitness journey!!! Losing 20 lbs since last fall is vvvvvery impressive! 🙌

I hope you feel proud and amazing about this! 🤘

@paulywill Thanks so much! I mainly feel relieved to be reclaiming my health and fitness. I haven’t actually been “dieting “, so the results are a very pleasant surprise for me.
My own #adhd has interfered with achieving a lot of my goals, but I’m learning the many benefits of habit formation. Gamification works extremely well for me, so the #AppleWatch has been a gamechanger.
@EllenInEdmonton Very inspiring!
@paulywill Wishing you all the best on your journey. Hope you find sustainable healthy habits.
