Portion Size Experimentation
Play several meals with varying portion sizes. Record the impact on hunger and mood to discover the sweet spot that maximizes performance without penalties.

- Use the dog as a disposal method for excess items you don’t need.

Outfit Durability Tracking
Log each garment’s lifespan across days. Since every garment degrades after a single day of use, plan laundry around the outfits you want to keep effective.
- Rotate outfits daily to spread wear evenly across your wardrobe.
- Schedule laundry on days with fewer critical tasks to minimize time loss.
