Wow. That's some heroic effort you're going through.

Can't you use that treadmill time to read, watch or listen to something? Or meditate, you referred to buddhism in our other discussion.

If you haven't done so already, you could automate things further via a smartphone or a computer. There's software for almost any purpose. For example, my smartphone does my exercise plans for me and keeps track of progress and adjusts the plans accordingly, reminds me when to exercise and when to eat, reminds me to weigh myself in the morning and draws a prediction graph of my weight based on the last 7 day measurements and calculates how many extra calories have gone in or out based on the progress.

Do you mind if I ask which app(s) you're using?

I watch TV on the treadmill to try and pass time as quickly as possible. Or audiobook. I have a hard time reading and running/walking.

I'm low tech and should do a much better job of automating. The app you describe sounds awesome.
