Ledger Your Body Keeps

You kept a ledger for years — the tracker, the app, the little grade at the end of the day. Your body was keeping one too, the whole time. And the two ledgers disagree about almost everything: yours graded the outcomes; your body was recording how it felt during — the white-knuckle afternoons, the bracing, the aloneness at 9:40 PM.

In this episode: why the during predicts everything and the afterglow predicts nothing · the research where the diet didn't matter and the staying did · and the entry your body's ledger has been waiting to write. Those years weren't wasted, and you weren't failing. You were doing research — decades of it. You have a PhD in yourself. Nobody's ever asked to see it.
