Tea

Woke up at 2am. Directionally bad.

Tea dosage: 8g of Shou

Pushed the tea pretty hard. Nice molasses flavor.

The things I want are not hard:

And yet I seem to be on the whole incapable of affecting any lasting changes.

I think a good strategy for now is just limiting caffeine to one session a day and see how I feel. And gradually reduce the amount I’m brewing.

I think I was trying to do too much all at once.

To be honest, I don’t really like the way caffeine makes me feel.

Drinking caffeine at 2am was pretty dumb tbh. Because now I can’t really go back to sleep.

Decided to not order Uber Eats even though I wanted to… I’m pretty sure my specific cause of insomnia was I ordered a very spicy calzone last night and I’m pretty sure that upset my tummy. Umm, yeah I think focusing too much on weight loss might be holding me back. I think my main goal should be saving money. I’m focusing on eating a lot of beans because they’re cheap as fuck and nutritious.

I do also want to fix my insomnia. It’s pretty dumb to wake up at 2am and then work all day.

Ate some beans which were actually pretty good. I cooked them in chicken stock

Took a nap and realized I need a rice cooker because I’m Celiac and rice is a cheap carb. Decide to get frozen tater tots instead of going to the diner. So win in my book.

Today was a bit shit work sucked and then like I went to a bunch of differend coffee shops and ate chipotle. Which was kind of nice.
