Thanks!

You're very welcome!

Fantastic points!

Fair point! Consider it fixed

The article description is "A deep dive on why projects always overrun and a framework to improve future estimation"

This was a personal investigation into my faulty estimation skills, off the back of a small project which became a medium project, which became a large project with no shortage of surprises, overruns and pain.

The blog post was born from an honest and thorough postmortem where it turns out most of the work was simply not expected – and so wasn't accounted for.

I then went a stage further and attempted to outline more general reasons for this and to visualise how might look in terns of time and effort. It's not meant to be scientific, but is certainly an interesting way to look at things.

Anyway, I hope someone finds it useful.

I recently shed 10kg/1.5st following a three-month Keto + Intermittent Fasting routine.

Whilst the weight loss was great, even more exciting were the hidden benefits:

- increased discipline - better daily routine - getting my evenings back - going to bed and getting up earlier - regaining my love for cooking - understanding nutrition

If you're interested, here's everything I researched, learned and reflected on in one big blog post, including:

- how to plan for keto - what books to buy and websites to visit - how to plan, shop and cook 3 meals a day - spreadsheets with macros and meal plans - what to expect during the process - how to manage it around the rest of your life - how to enjoy it and what to do when you don't

Plenty more as well; hopefully it's useful if you've been considering one or both regimes.

Enjoy!

That's kind of you to comment! Thank you. FWIW it's a really fun exercise to log your own wins; I suggest you have a go!
