my current diet

I wouldn't say my diet is terrible. I definitely eat a lot of sweets, and any amount of fast food is too much honestly. I live in a place where I have the privilege to completely cut out fast food, but I acknowledge that not everyone has that. Trying to be healthy as a poor person in America is difficult.

I'm going to slowly cut back on the sweets, and cut out fast food while I can. No telling what's going to happen while I'm traveling. 

I severely cut back on the pork over a year ago. I quit drinking cold turkey in January. I did that with the high certainty that it wouldn't have any extremely negative effects, as I don't have a chemical dependency on alcohol. For some people, quitting to cold turkey is dangerous. Quitting alcohol also comes with some social repercussions. Some more harsh than others depending on who you are and what your friends circles was built off of. When you quit drinking, you see how much American society is functional alcoholism. I'm 9 months off, as of this post. I didn't do it because I got any kind of trouble. I did it because I've been drinking since I was a teenager, and it's just time to do something else. I started using cannabis in 2018, and I started doing THC late last year. I do edibles, tinctures, vape, and smoke. I'm an extreme lightweight to THC.

The key is staying hydrated, no matter what. I find I have a problem with staying hydrated so I drink a lot of water and enhanced water to help hold the hydration and electrolytes.

I also started being sexually actively last year. My sexual health is also going through some changes and doing a lot. I need to do some work on my pelvic floor and some of my reproductive parts, to make sure those are healthy. I'll talk more about that after I get the issue resolved.

I let go of a lot when I realize I was having health issues in other ways and now I'm seeing the consequences.  I used to teeter between...
