I eat better (when I had money). No fast food, I only drink alcohol every couple of months, and avoid harmful drugs. Going to bed early I see it as a luxury. I walk instead of driving. My go to beverages are ice water, cold brew black coffee, and occasionally soy milk.

I’m fucking miserable.

I use weed to cope with existential crisis and sociopolitical turmoil. Oh you mean physically? Heh… Heh…

Real answer: I walk a lot, I’m grateful to live in a walkable city

I hit rock bottom, gave up drinking, went to therapy, found a new job that I don’t hate, gave up weed, found a partner, got asked if I wanted to go on a hiking holiday with her, said yes, panicked because I was totally out of shape, bought a bike, got in shape and enjoyed it, got married, have a kid on the way. Life’s good.

Over 70. Exercise every day. Eat a variety of foods. Limit screen time.

Mid 30s.

Work, sleep, work, sleep, energy drink, work, sleep, energy drink, work, sleep, energy drink, work half a shift, 2nd energy drink, with 2nd half of shift, fucking crash into a vegetative state for a weekend.

Typical week.

Not doing great. >_>

Got my food allergies tested. Avoiding those have really helped my mystery “ughh why do I hurt” days

Took the leap and actually started paying a nutritional biologist (translating an Italian term) and lost 10 kgs without noticing.

All while keeping training at least 3 days a week and maintaining strength gains and sometimes even getting better.

I also started a book club focused on sci-fi and non-fiction about technology and digital rights, to force myself to start reading again, since I noticed a sharp degradation of my ability to express myself and to analyze discourse.

Finally, I am learning French as my fifth language.

I would love to say I am doing great for being 40+, but mental health and zero social life affect me more than I would like to admit.

Quit reddit and twitter.

No alcohol, mostly plant based diet, no fast food, no processed food, no intoxicants, no prescription drugs. Hiking and gravel riding.

I am not smug about it but I’ve been taking better care of myself for around 10 years and it’s grrrreat.

The healthy people were right.

I saw some photos of myself dancing at a friends wedding and did NOT LIKE what I saw. Pure vanity.

I got a personal trainer and set some very silly stunt goals - I knew I didn’t want to focus on how I look, but focus on being the kind of person who could do interesting things and that would have a side effect that looked good. It worked! Plus I learned how to do cool things with my body.

Sometimes being hungover or eating huge meals interfered with my quest to do a pistol squat or a one arm push up or run a race. So I moderated that and hit my goals.

Now my baseline is fairly healthy. So when I go out until 4 with people my body is able to handle it better. I still pay, but I understand the trade off and it isn’t something that happens to me it’s something I chose.

Therapy came in when I was extremely stressed. I avoided it for so long and it was dumb. It’s good to talk to people about your life and challenges. Coaches help players.

My sleep used to be very bad. But I want to do a one arm pull up this year. My body needs rest to get strong enough. So I gotta plan to sleep! I have to give up some other choices to get what I want.

Almost 31. I don’t drink sugar anymore. I still eat fast food constantly and vape THC on the daily. I have a therapist now, though, and sometimes exercise.

I struggled to gain weight for most of my life, but I finally managed to put on some muscle via figuring out that I need to eat a ton of food alongside activity. Doing woodworking, drumming, and general housework has been enough exercise to keep me from getting fat and actually have an okay physique.

Mental health is in the shitter, but I’m working on it.

So I think I’m doing about as well as everyone else my age.

Just bought a new mattress so hopefully sleeping better soon

I’ve been going to therapy. That’s about it.

Doing thorough research on quality support items like wobbly stools, rope, and a really nice bathing toaster. Going to set myself up for success in my future endeavors.

Nope. I’ve never been into junk food and alcohol anyway.
