How are you staying physically fit these days? A healthy body is a healthy mind and all that...
Personally, I like to work out first thing in the morning before I've had anything to eat. I like to do 15 minutes on the treadmill just running, with a few minutes of walking in between if I'm really tired. Then I do 30ish minutes of burpees and go shower. I like to take ice cold showers. They don't feel very nice at first but if I stick it out I end up feeling a little better for the rest of the day. Hot water also dries out my skin really bad. The cold water doesn't do this. 5 minutes of discomfort is well worth the benefits IMO.
I usually don't feel like eating much after all this so my go-to breakfast for the last month has been coffee with peanut butter powder mixed in. I used to just make protein powder shakes with some ice and yogurt but they taste like crap and are a little heavy that early. It all evens out though because I have a very protein heavy diet anyways, mostly meat, fish, eggs, lentils, black beans, oatmeal, wild rice. I cook with a lot of Huy Fong garlic chili sauce and hot peppers which are a great way to add flavor without being terrible for you.
Does anyone have diet and exercise tips to share?
