So something I've been pretty open about is how when I'm knee deep in a project, I have a really hard time being healthy. The best time I had for my health is when I was TASQ and during the start of Prison City, because I had lost like 80+ lbs, could obsess a bit about being healthy, etc - ThreadSky

I get this way too when I’m in the middle of a project. It’s almost like I can’t think or do anything else until the project is finished or until I meet the goal I made for the day with it

This is exactly it- and then the flip side when I’m working on health- it’s like it has to be all I think about and I neglect everything else

But when I'm focused on a project, health gets completely shoved to the side. It's a bit of a worrisome trend for me, because I'm completely unable to find a middle ground between being healthy and investing time into a project. Since starting newTASQ, I've definitely watched my health slip lol

So anyway I guess what I'm saying is- it's way too easy to pick one or the other lol I'm still learning how to do BOTH.

I need to start prioritizing starting the day with 10k steps again, getting my calories down to a manageable amount, and ending the day with another 5k+ steps. Projects can come between that!

My morning routine consists of just doing 15 pushups, 15 situps, 15 jumping jacks while my coffee brews. I found it was a nice simple goal to hit and get the muscles stretched before I sit at my desk for 8 hours. Bonus is my toddler has joined in.

I usually forget to eat and drink water. It's ok. If I die and get all dried and crusty, maybe they can just put me in a museum back in my home country. 😎

bro, it's so difficult to remember to even take a walk some days lol. I have to force myself otherwise I'll procrastinate because I'm too hyperfocused on some coding or art related task.

Yeah, it's a tricky balance to get right: I know I often tend to be super invested in gamedev late in the evening, making me go to bed waaay too late.

I am now forcing myself to at least walk around my home every hour or so, just to change position and stretch a little my poor back.
