Lately, I’ve been noticing how my glassblowing work long hours by the furnace, irregular breaks affects my eating habits. Pair that with trying to keep up with urban farming and yoga therapy, and I’m realizing my nutrition might be all over the place. Has anyone else in a physically demanding or heat-heavy job found it tricky to balance meals? I’m curious if there are unexpected pitfalls I’m missing, like hydration slipping away or energy crashes from inconsistent eating. Would love to hear how others manage!
Bless your heart, that furnace heat’ll sneak up on ya! I keep a big ol’ insulated water jug and protein-packed snacks in my apron pockets – helps when breaks come at odd times.
