Thanks @Pekelo, I browsed through Gretchen's stuff since 5am. One of my habits is to get up and work in silence. Good to have at least an hour of the day with just the birds.
I had a look at Gretchen's stuff, it is easy to do things if for somebody else however I quite often hit my own goals usually enough.
Getting stuff done is the important thing and whatever motivational delusions one needs to do that, go with them.
I usually go to a book's Amazon page and read a few reviews. Sometimes that is even better than reading the book itself.
Going back to topic, there is a website where one can set goals (weight loss, learning a language, whatever) with time frames and they even have some sort of mentors who keep the person motivated and focused:

That is one I learned after 38, don't eat after 9pm or sleeplessness may ensue and nighttime calories are lifetime calories (just made that rhyme up)
as the gradual weight gain is hard to avoid. I did my last triathlon at 34 and my knees are a bit blown now.Goals, not much of an issue with me realy, what becomes complicated it juggling them sometimes to bring each forward. Just energy at the moment is a root issue however I've been to the doc so lab work will be complete on Tuesday perhaps.
I can take blood myself, it is only $60 a lab test here so I just took another blood sample and will get a two week profile with two day spacing.
I am a short sleeper, so I only do 4 to 4.5 hours naturally. No avoiding that however weight gain is simply normal I expect as we turn silverback.
Hiring a chef/trainer would probably be a good idea. I could have had an avacado (yuck) instead of a Danish for breakfast today. It is quite common in Colombia to have staff.
Knee pain is slowing me from doing much more than walking. I did a lot of damage on day in Africa when I had to haul ass ten miles with a 30 pound rifle, ammo, water etc. in an emergency. Too much weight too fast and knees have never been ok since then.

Surely there choices other than a Danish or avocado for breakfast.
Pastries are not your friend. They look all sweet and innocent, but they're evil.
It is ok, I can eat Danish as I am part Danish. Cannolis I'll grant you are organised food crime.
I guess a thing I can do is get a chef and have the same diet as Don Nicolas, the GF's brother's father-in-law who has been diagnosed with prostate cancer. Low sugar obviously but I recon that can work. Lose weight for sure that way and get a 2-4-1 use of the cook/assistant.
Food solidarity.
