How I Walked 12000 Steps a Day While Intermittently Fasting - a Diary

 Hi you all! It‘s late and I feel the influence of the mountains and forest in my system - almost falling asleep. My friend generously allowed me to be at her house for a couple of days. So here I am. Before falling asleep: a short review: 📓  Daily Check-In 📆 Date:  Saturday, the 5th of July 2025 😴 Sleep duration & quality:  5h 49‘. Not much… 📍 Where I walked:  in the park (morning), shopping (lunch) and through the forest (evening). 🚶 Steps walked: 12.466 🕒 Time slot of walk(s):  morning at about 7 am, evening between 9-10 pm. 🎧 What I was doing while walking (calls, shows, etc.):  messaging, talking to my daughter. 🎒 Walking ideas / improvements (e.g. accessories, mood, setup):  I could need a head lamp for when the forest ist dark. 💭 Thoughts I had while walking:   🎹 Did I get to the piano today?  No… 🥗 What I ate (vegan/non-vegan, dish types, hunger level):  not much. Started with a matcha oat latte at 12 pm, then...

 Hello everyone. It‘s been a good day today.  Right now I feel the warm water around my tired body in the God-bless-this-bathtub, and also writing on my iPad at the same time. Today, I managed to fill my 12k before getting dark. I must admit that I took a break while marching through the park - I felt really tired. We have temperatures of about 35 degrees or more here, hence making it almost impossible to walk during the day without getting too much sun.  I‘ve been working today, conducting hearings and some administrative work. Still, I managed to get at the piano in the evening, after feeling inspired by listening to Martha Argerich‘s Rachmaninov 3 on the way to work and back. It‘s still a commute of one hour per direction. So I have plenty of time to listen to music.  But now I‘ll stop. Maybe the biggest thing today was my low blood pressure. I haven‘t gotten such a good pressure in - months? I can‘t even remember when. So let‘s assess: 📓  Daily Check-In 📆 ...

 Will it work? I‘m home and I drove to work today. Felt a bit weak before 13:00, when I started eating. Now it‘s 18:00 and I already started the next fasting period. Because I feel pretty satiated with what I have eaten today.  And I finally had a matcha oat latte!! I missed that.  Now I‘ll work again a bit. Today we had a cleaning day at home, everything looks way better. Also the kitchen.  My kids are here and I very much enjoy their presence.  *** Well, well, well. It‘s midnight and yes, I managed to finish my steps 5‘ before the new day. I feel accomplished, and very tired. All the rest, tomorrow. 📓  Daily Check-In 📆 Date:  Tuesday, 1st of July 2025. 😴 Sleep duration & quality:  6,27 hours. Still too short. 📍 Where I walked:  shopping in the afternoon, park in the night. 🚶 Steps walked: 12930 🕒 Time slot of walk(s):  afternoon and late at night. 🎧 What I was doing while walking (calls, shows, etc.):  going through foo...
