Lifelogging Again

Apollo Lemmon — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 01:08:52 +0000

Three months ago I was lifelogging every day and keeping a good record of my activities at Daytum. Around the time I moved back to Nova Scotia I fell out of the habit of recording my eating, sleeping, exercising and meditating activities. Since then I have allowed myself to neglect lifelogging during the transition involved in returning to Halifax. Now I am looking forward to beginning again on September 1st.

This time I will be trying an alternative to Daytum, the flashier and more social zeaLOG.

In very few words, zeaLOG is a site for keeping track of anything and everything. Users track things either publicly or privately, and can either go it alone, or work in groups to see how they stack up against other folks. Users are tracking exercise, weight, how often they fight with their mother, what movies they watch, their Coke Zero habits, even how often they have sex (those are usually private). Nothing works like peer pressure and encouragement. ~zeaLOG

At Daytum.com/apollolemmon I track four aspects of my life. During the past week I averaged 7.75 hours of sleep, 1.28 hours of exercise and 1 hour of meditation each day. The ten foods I consumed most were azuki bean casserole, bananas, chocolate chip cookies, pierogi, jasmine rice, fusilli, cashew chili, mozzarella, and vegetable tofu curry.

This is the first week since I began tracking my data that I have meditated every day. I’m very pleased that I have been able to make meditation part of my daily life and will be continuing for the next 3 months with at least an hour each day. My strength training and eating habits need strengthening and I’ll be working on that this coming week.
