What do people eat before morning runs?

Im new to running and I just can't seem to get morning nutrition right. I usually go for a run within an hour of waking up. But I noticed that eating fruits beforehand (riped bananas, apples, avocado) makes my stomach hurt and my energy bonk out around 6 miles. When I eat anything heavier I'm super uncomfortable the whole time.

Im constantly looking for what foods are best for me, when is the best time to eat and how to make sure I’m getting the right nutrition, but these are some of the things I’ve noticed so far:

  • Foods I ate the day before: I didn’t think about this too much but apparently if you wake up hungry you should look at the food you ate the day before. I usually eat something like pasta and that makes me hungry every morning that’s why I can’t run fasted or my energy bonk out easily in every run.
  • High fiber and high fat foods: I like to eat avocados or dried fruits before runs but too much fiber or fat can affect digestion that’s why i feel horrible a lot of time, thought it’s good because of its health benefits but it takes more time to digest which makes me feel heavy or bloated
  • Simple carbs digest a lot faster: Foods like jam, honey, or white bread seem to work better for me before running compared to heavier meals. I track how much carbs I’m getting on mena and it usually shows I’m lower on carbs than I think before runs. It became a habit to me lately to track all my foods to make sure im getting the right balance of carbs
  • Timing rules after eating: If I eat 30 mins before run, even light food can feel heavy at the start. If I eat too early, I feel hungry again halfway through the run. I’ve been experimenting with that 60 to 90 minute window before running, where I try to give my body enough time to digest but still have fuel available.

Still trying to figure out that balance where I feel light but don’t run out of energy halfway through my runs. I’m still pretty new to running, so I’d really appreciate any advice. What do you usually eat before early morning runs, and how long before you head out?

How I quit smoking (worst habit you can possibly have)

This will be a long story and could be interesting for you if you are actively trying to quit smoking (nicotine, weed, iqos, vape..). I’m spanish, 35 yo and this is officially one year without smoking after more than 20 years. I’ve started very early and stopped from time to time but never consistently. I will share my full experience and what led me to the decision of quitting once at all.
- Why I did quit? The most important thing to quit smoking is having a real purpose and reason to do it. For me, I will soon become dad of a little girl. My wife is pregnant (7 months). And when we decided to have a baby we deeply discussed the need of both quitting smoking before this new adventure. It’s extremely important to cut with any toxic stuff before having a baby and it has been long proven that everything ingested or consumed during pregnancy can impact the baby’s health. I researched about this for very long before even thinking of having a child, and I think anybody should look into it. Here’s a good starting point for who’s interested https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3750375/

- Having a partner or companion along the journey. This is the second most important thing, which as you may have inferred from the first point, in my case its my wife. We both decided to quit smoking and we’re helping each other along the way. But this is a personal journey, and you will be alone when the temptation comes. What I found useful was having a Daimon to talk with every time I was about to give up and smoke one. (https://daimonapp.ai/)

- Finding your triggers and attacking them one by one. For me it was stress at work and social situations, like a beer with friends or hanging out. Being honest with myself about when exactly I was most vulnerable, once you have that mapped out you can prepare for those moments. I started having a plan for each trigger, gum in my pocket before going out, a walk instead of a smoke break at work. It sounds mechanical but it works. (If you want a practical framework for this, this video can help u to spot your triggers) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mykSBO1aMeU
- Accept that you will have bad days and don't let them reset you: The second month I had a rough week where I smoked three cigarettes over five days, in the past that would have sent me straight back to a full pack because in my head I had already failed. But this time I just kept going the next morning like nothing happened. Most people who successfully quit long-term had multiple slip ups along the way, the difference is how they responded to them

For everyone in this situation or if you’re thinking about quitting to smoke, the best time to start was yesterday, for every question fell free to ask

UGC creator for almost a year ($6K/month right now)

I started with little knowledge of what I was doing, what platform to focus on, what type of content to create, and if I should post on Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook Reels. I didn't expect that the hardest part would be deciding how to even start with the small audience I had. I used to think that creating content itself would be the most difficult part.
But over time I began to notice that simpler content about everyday life is what people enjoy watching.
Another thing you need to put the attention are the Hooks (the first few seconds of your video)
I used to stress about coming up with something original and creative, but honestly the simplest approach works best: Find hooks that are already performing well in a completely different niche, and adapt them to yours. It sounds almost too easy, but it works because the psychology behind a good hook is the same regardless of the topic.

After about 6 months, when I had around 5K followers, I started landing my first brand deals through Sideshift. One of those early contracts was a CPM deal $1.50 per 1,000 views. Sounds small, right?
One of the videos from that campaign hit 3 million views, which technically would have been over $4,500, but the contract had a cap, so I ended up getting paid $3,000 from that single video.

That was a turning point, after that video blew up, my profile kept growing and I started hitting over a million views on other videos too and the dynamic shifted, brands began reaching out to me instead of the other way around.

Now almost a year in, I'm making at least $6,000 a month with 19K followers, from brand collaborations. (the half goes on duties tbh) And it still feels organic to me, I post about 4 times a day, and roughly every other day one of those is a collab. It doesn't feel forced because I'm still doing my regular content the rest of the time. If you're also starting out, my biggest takeaway is you'll figure things out by doing, not by overthinking.

1 year transformation from 98 kg to 67 kg

I lost 26 kg (98 to 72 kg) in a year. The hardest part was staying disciplined since I live in company accommodation and don’t really have full control over what I eat most days. Had to rely on oats, whey, and whatever was available. Despite this, I stayed consistent with training and diet. Today I feel more confident, energetic, and disciplined compared to before. My next goal is achieve visible abs.

My workout split looks something like this:

Mon - Upper strength (bench press or incline bench 3-5×5, barbell rows 3-5×5, overhead press 3×6-8, pull ups, then finish with some tricep and bicep work)

Tue - Lower strength (Mostly back squats 3-5×5, Romanian deadlifts, split squats, calves, and core work)

Wed - Zone 2 + mobility (25-40 min easy cardio and 10-15 min hips/shoulders)

Thu - Upper hypertrophy (dumbbell press 3×8-12, lat pulldown 3×8–12, lateral raises/face pulls 3×12-15, cables/arms 2-3×12-15)

Fri - Lower hypertrophy (front squat or leg press 3×8-12, hamstring curl 3×10-12, walking lunges 2-3×12/leg, core 3×10-15)

Sat - Conditioning or sport (10×30s hard/90s easy or a long brisk walk)

Sun - Rest day/light cardio, I let my body fully recover before starting the next week.

In terms of what i eat:

Most of my diet ended up being a mix of whatever I could get from cafeteria meals when available, plus simple stuff like oats, whey protein and potatoes depending on what was served. I track my intake through Mena AI just by taking a photo of my meal and let it break down the ingredients, portions, and macros. I do cheat meals now and then but most of the time I completely avoid processed food and sugar. I change my normal cardio to HITT sessions to burn more calories to lose faster.

Just wanted to share my progress with you guys, because I'm really happy with the results I've achieved so far and honestly even shocked when I look at old pictures and see how much my body changed. It motivates me to keep pushing even harder to see how far I can go. Feel free to ask me anything, I will be reading y'all!

Studley Alternatives for students? (study tools and AI note takers)

I used Studley for a couple months but its too bugged and my cortisol level is spiking. For that price i cannot see pdf uploads failign the 50% of the times. Also more than once I lost all my notes out of nowhere and there was no way to recover the files. Is there any similar app for quiz generators, AI note taking, flashcards, etc etc? Thanks!

Edit: I tried to use some of the ones you suggested but for now the one that convinced me is TurboAI, I can have everything in the same app, quizzes, summaries, maps, flashcards (is also pretty viral on Ig, I saw a lot of videos)
