Importance of exercise and breakfast

 Recently, I have started to make an effort to eat well for breakfast. Here's what I do:


a glass of milk + banana at 620am before doing school run

Back home around 750am, I'll have 2 hard boiled eggs, a cup of black coffee, and some bread with jam, and maybe another banana

This keeps me full until 12pm, and I don't have to eat a large portion for lunch that way.

I also feel more energetic 

Also, I'll do some light exercises if its not my routine gym run/chin up day

Before I quite my job in Q3 2024, I never really take care of my meals. I was just on autopilot

And my exercise routine was non-existent, only going for some threadmill run when I am free from work.

It took a toll on my physical and mental health. I was constantly dozing off daily around 3-4pm, needing to take a 1-2 hour nap in order to make it through the day

Now, I seldom feel the sleepiness anymore, but it isn't completely eradicated, especially if I don't get enough sleep at night.

I'll try to fall asleep by 1130pm each day, giving me 6.5 hours of rest. I think anything less than that, I'll run the risk of insufficient rest. 

Here's to a healthy 2025, both physically and mentally. 

Taking care of myself is my priority now. If I am not well, I can't enjoy life, I can't take care of my loved ones.
