the pilgrims didn't foresee sweet tv deals tho

 

[zeemumu]

Worked retail during black friday once.

Wasn't great...but then again it was never great working there.

You should take after work selfies. Show your happiness, too.

I start my two week no-carb diet tomorrow. Will it fail? Maybe. Will I go insane? Yes.

Drinking a piña colada icee. All seems ok so far.

I've been staying away from carbs also. At some point I'm going to mouth fuck a hogie after I'm done cutting.

I'm making pretzel bread cheesesteak rn. Carbs are my favorite.

Go out and have a good time. It is hard to fight with melancholy, but screw it, you are stronger than it.

thanks for indulding me at my dark times guys @_@

tonight turned out to be pretty fun. for no reason at all our waiter told us that negative thoughts can poison the body just like bad food can, lol. I felt like he was talking to me directly, it was so weird. also the singer of Self Defense Family is like the coolest dude ever. he was doing little speeches inbetween songs that were really nice.
I just still had some minor shyness with all the socialising going on but all together I was feeling much better than home alone.

Good to hear things went well for you!

Lost ~20kg on a high exercise, low carb diet. Ketosis was magical. Tough to start with and you will go a bit loopy, but once your body adjusts you're all gravy. You need to be committed and consistent though.

I've done ketosis before, and it worked like a charm. It was HARD to maintain, though. Talk about dedication and perseverance.

I've tried low carb diets before, but my dumb ass is way to addicted to double cheeseburgers and grilled cheese sammiches to ever stop eating them. Curse you tastey food, CURSE YOU!

I care far less about having well defined abs than I do about drinking beer and ingesting carbs.

Fucking feel beat up today, doms city limits man.

Speaking of Doms, Gears 4 multi was giving me flashbacks to Gears 1, not quite sure what they've done to the weapon balance but it's constant one shot gnasher kills on me, and no double barrel shotty to counter it.

 

[Vazra]

Yep, doing alright. And you?

Im great. Spending time with family and applying for a job. Eyeing an interpreter job that the start salary is 16.50 . Hope to get that or Costco which might be even more than that.

I've heard only good things about working at Costco. Great benefits and pay (for that type of work).

I ate so much meat on keto. Meats and cheeses all the time. The anti-vegan diet, really. Though I do know some vegans who've given it a try. It just becomes very expensive.

Speaking of, I'm eating a homemade Greek salad right now. It's pretty delicious.

Fucking love a good greek salad. I could live off olives.

I won't lie, it wasn't easy. Especially the start, the chemical adjustment leading to mood swings. And I love my carbs, sweets, etc anyway, so cutting them out of the diet was really hard. But I knew it wasn't permanent, so I just stuck with it for a few months and bounced back to diet normality.

I'm an "employment consultant" for a JobActive organization on a government contract, basically the welfare system in Australia. I meet with clients to discuss and monitor their welfare obligations, while working with them on their employment goals, and in some cases strategise and work around physical/mental barriers.

I care far less about having well defined abs than I do about drinking beer and ingesting carbs.

Was never abs for me, but instead my specialist advising I lose as much weight as possible between my then appointment and the next. I was well overweight, and gastrointestinal issues indicated the first point to address was exercise and weight. As the specialist noted in my following appointment, most patients told to lose weight won't actually do so. I'd done the opposite. After that first appointment I just bit the bullet, worked out a ketosis diet, purchased weights and a bike, and killed it for a few months, with the goal of losing as much as possible.

I could still stand to lose 10 - 15kg which I'm working on now, but I'm long off keto. Just exercise and watching what I eat (most of the time).

Definitely missed beer though. Bad.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Im trying to bulk up so I got a nice tummy goin.

Nice work mate, a lot of people will put 3 x the effort into bitching and moaning instead of doing something about it.

I tried to bulk last year and that's about all I got from it, I dunno whether it's because of my back, my build or my age but I didn't see any kind of strength increase.

maybe if it got me free rent. but for serious, nah.. moved into the basement area about a year ago. it feels like a typical basement nerd thing sometimes, but i do have a lot of room here and a pool, so it's almost not uncool

Eh, dont feel to bad man. I had to bite the bullet and move in with some friends a few weeks back, didnt want to but for my own mental health I had to. Went from having a nice big house all to myself to having a single bedroom and sharing an upstairs bathroom with 4 young boys.

So long as it doesn't look like this:

That doesn't sound like a setup that would be conducive to good mental health.

Noice. Good luck with the job hunt.

Depends on how lonely he was. Living alone can be very hard on your mental health for that reason, especially if you don't socialize a lot.

Dont be too harsh on yourself really and if you need someone to talk to privately you can PM anytime.

So I'm at Bethan's. We started watching The Blues Brothers but got a bit...distracted.

Once we'd finished being distracted, we decided to finish watching The Blues Brothers. And then we checked the time.

We'd been lewding it up for 2 and a half hours. And now it's 4AM because we've just been making out and talking for the past 3 hours

I am happy c:

I went from having roomates from 18 till I got married, to living with my wife for several years, to suddenly going though a divorce and living on my own for the first time ever. Combine that with a drinking problem and not having many friends, and it was not a good situation for me mentally at all.

 

[jb1234]

I think I'd be more okay with it if I had a job. Killing fifteen hours a day by myself is a recipe for poor mental health. But when I was in school, it didn't bother me at all because I was there all the time and when I got home, I'd just pop in a game or a movie and go to town.

Totally understandable. I hope you're in a better place now (both physically and mentally).

 

[Hickbilly Deluxe]

Mentally, yes for the most part. Physically... I'm still pretty rough around the edges. Plenty of room for improvement there. But I'm a work in progress.

Ah, fair enough, hope things improve for you.

Of course, I keep forgetting you can't work. So long as I had money I could easily live a life of leisure, scraping by just above the poverty is a completely different story though
