resetting the clock

Just found this place after a physical flagged high blood pressure and cholesterol, plus weight creeping up from months of late night gaming binges.

Early retirement gave me way too much free time and I mostly burned it on hours-long sessions that ran past a decent bedtime. Started breaking those up with short walks instead of powering through…

Still working out where an exam Im studying for and actual sleep fit into the week. Glad to be here.

    walk swap makes sense – 5 weeks into it myself

    The exam plus sleep balance part is real, grad school and a part time job have wrecked my bedtime the same way, especially after late study sessions when my brain just will not shut off. Swapping gaming for walks sounds like a solid trade, I did something similar with late night screen time and it actually helped more than I expected.

    my checkup came back rough too, right at 43
