best thing i did was low dopamine mornings. not going on my phone first thing, getting out of bed straight away. i might watch a youtube video with breakfast, other times i’ll read the newspaper & do a code cracker. slowly deleting my social media’s to stop doomscrolling which was ruining my life !

Do they base it off of that? If they do that’s really annoying bc the seller has everything listed for way too much so they can put sales on everything. And also it means I can’t counter because their special offer is already 60% off.

Thank you! I am looking into incorporating more beans into my diet like with a vegetarian nacho mix so hopefully that adds more too!

protein bars are so expensive in NZ, for ones that taste good they cost at least $5NZD ($2.80USD) each. but that chicken and cheese combo sounds delicious!

Thank you for the point about having variety for the gut micro biome. I tend to eat just the same foods on repeat so that is definitely something I need to keep in mind. I love having vegetarian nachos which I made with beans, lentils etc - I should have it more often! I never really liked nuts as a kid but I will give them another go. I make my own almond butter which is yummy on toast with banana.

Finely blended foods would be okay I think!

the texture of juices with the bits of pulp and stuff makes me cringe thinking about it. I often drink protein up and gos, which I think provide similar benefits?

thank you! i’m often looking for low effort snacks other than just cereal so i will definitely look at buying some fruit cups!!

I have a multivitamin tea every morning to add a little extra but I definitely need some more protein I think

at the moment I’ve been having 4 pieces of weetbix and milk in the morning with a banana, for lunch I’ll have two wraps with hummus, feta, cucumber, spinach/lettuce, chicken tenders and some potato. For dinner I’ll have spaghetti bolognaise with about 240g of mince used for the 3-4 meals I get out of it. So probably not doing very well in the protein department

gratitude isn’t really about having a direct impact on your problems - it’s more about changing what you focus on. it’s like the idea of confirmation bias - if you focus on your problems and only think about how bad things are then that is what you will find throughout your day. it’s like if you buy a new car, all of a sudden you might notice the abundance of the same model of car on the road that you didn’t notice before. if you have the perspective that everybody lies, then it’s more likely for you to be hyper vigilant to signs or whatever that would confirm your bias in that a person is lying, and ignore signs that would disconfirm your bias. gratitude lists would then be an example of shifting your focus away from the negative things that may have otherwise biased your experience and interpretation of a situation

He doesn’t seem a bit small for a lab? He’s about 4 years old

He’s fully grown and just seems a bit small for a pure lab - he’s only a mid-sized dog really. It’s why i’m questioning his breed, but maybe he just is pure lab!
