Took the leap and actually started paying a nutritional biologist (translating an Italian term) and lost 10 kgs without noticing.

All while keeping training at least 3 days a week and maintaining strength gains and sometimes even getting better.

I also started a book club focused on sci-fi and non-fiction about technology and digital rights, to force myself to start reading again, since I noticed a sharp degradation of my ability to express myself and to analyze discourse.

Finally, I am learning French as my fifth language.

I would love to say I am doing great for being 40+, but mental health and zero social life affect me more than I would like to admit.
