How are you doing? - Kiwi Farms Wellness Check

[Flavius Claudius Julianus]

So a month ago today (at least in a few hours,) I said I was losing weight for general health, etc.

Well, I've been committed to the cause every day. No missed cardio, more intense in the gym, controlled portions, and less soda, energy drinks, all that shit.

Even after four weeks the change has been incredible. I'm not weighing myself until the 6 week mark, but I'd estimate I've lost 7-8kg, or 15-18lbs or so. Half of that would've probably been water in the initial phase, but it's made a crazy difference already.

I'm in the routine now, so it gets easier and easier each time. I initially though heading to the gym for the second time in the evening would be a drag, but I'm in and out in about 20 minutes, barely even miss the time.

To all other dieters of any kind, keep your chin up.

Wish I didn't need all this side-hustle bullshit and I could get to the good stuff

That's why I dropped out. Maybe I'll go back later but damn is it annoying.

Changes in the weather are making my allergies flare up, and the only OTC antihistamine that relieves my symptoms is diphenhydramine (benadryl) which knocks me out. Hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Niacin in high doses releases histamine from mast cells which takes a while to replenish, thus reducing any allergic sensitivities. Vitamin C destroys histamine present in the blood, making any ongoing allergic reaction less severe

Thank you, but I'm starting to think you signed up for the Kiwi Farms to astroturf for Big Niacin.

Tired in general,finally decide to delete my twitter a couple days ago instead of just leaving it there.I was to naive into believing Elon will make twiiter into some amazing platform and he will somehow bring back the glory days of the 2010s internet.Instead what we get is a shit 4chan wannabe with bunch of shit bots everywhere.
Those days are over yet I keep hoping it'll return,
I really miss back then I can meet genuine people on the internet that has the same interest as me and be in a real big community.

 

[Childe]

I am doing great today and I hope all of the good folks here are as well

 

[Core Theorist]

I hate being poor. I wish I could work while learning but nobody's hiring in my area and I don't know how to even start with nepotism.

I fucking hate niggers. I fucking hate my job. I fucking hate that it's illegal for EMS to arm themselves in any capacity and then they ship us into the darkest roughest fucking ghettos known to mankind and go "good luck haha fuck you guys!"
We made the mistake of having to take a leak and stopped somewhere we thought was a relatively safer area, walk in to the gas station separately and both of us get accosted by this shady methed up fucking mooncricket trying to flag us down, he starts following me around doing the typical "AYO WYT WOMAN" schtik then follows my partner into the bathroom trying to get information out of him and he drops a duffel bag of fucking drugs in a stall, I walk out of the store and he follows me trying to get me to stop while shouting to his buddy about our ambo, they start fucking driving circles around it like sharks and my partner finally comes out and we can leave
PTSD due to similar worse circumstances so it's been like an hour and I'm still on 800% alert my heart's going 2000mph
Kill niggers, behead niggers, roundhouse kick a fucking nigger into the concrete

I used to be an EMT back in the day, and this hit me in the feels. Nothing ever happened, but I know that feeling of being deeply scared and seeing those racial and class divides create real evil around you, and also unloose evil that existed in others that you never had to acknowledge.

I think the whole kneejerk meme of "kill niggers, roundhouse kick niggers" is a poor reaction to denying reality like liberals tried with in previous generations. We can't just choose to hate based on race. It's too easy. You can't hide your head in the sand and pretend the African culture and its resulting subcultures like those in America and other places don't contain a lot of acutely bad things that need to change: Violence, fatherlessness, drugs.

You don't owe anyone giving up your safety and peace of mind, but although I am not a member of that community, but I thank you for what you do. That's what heroes do. They go and do hard things so that others may lead a better life.

Top stuff, fella. Started my diet on monday (a month later than planned but w/e) and i also feel much better physically and mentally already, apart from getting less sleep but that is always the case when i'm cutting, it's like my body needs less sleep the less calories it gets. Being clean for so long made me put on pounds like nobodies business but i am positive i will get back to a normal weight in no time.
I am going from 88kg/194 pounds down to around 76kg/167 pounds, which would put me at the lower end of my BMI, i need around two to two and half months for that. It feels easy this time around because i am not restricting myself too hard, no keto or IF, just standard calorie counting and i am basically eating all day on a 1700kcal budget. I even started to enjoy the taste of canned tuna again. Bit bummed i already have to do a cheat day on Sunday (Grandma's birthday, where i know i am practically getting force-fed), usually i only do one every two weeks where i just eat to maintenance.

Im doing a lot better than I was before. Said friend I was whining about last time reached out to me and we are talking again. I have a new job, hoping I make it through training.

Ive been taking a break from being online, working on myself and just living my life. Best I can do is take it one day at a time.

Honesty extremely stressed out. I am dealing with losing everything at the moment. My partner of 10 years decided to attack me. I lived off his income and was a stay-at-home wife. ( That is what worked for us)
I found photos of naked women in his phone, I got extremely upset by it, I will not lie. I did freak out and start to scream, we have had this issue in the pass of him receiving nudes. I thought we moved on from it. When I confronted him about it, he attacked me in our home instead of trying to use words. Now I am stuck with my bipolar mother, due to the cops getting called due to going to the hospital. Now his whole family has flipped on me. Messaging me threats due to the cops coming to his house.

I do apologize for expressing my trauma here. I just need some where to get this all off my chest.

I do have a good update about this whole situation.
I was able to get a flight back to my home country and be in a safe environment with a good support system around.

Thank you to the Kiwis for advice and the support! <3

3 months, but she was only here on vacation, summer fling kind of thing. Also had a husband, which i learned of, much to my own chagrin as i despise cheaters, a couple of days before she took off back to Ecuador. But i get that "global citizen" thing, i've people like that in my social circle and i have to bite my tongue often when i am with them. Not because i fear them ostracising me or anything but i am a generally very polite person when i am not posting on here.

no one cares useless cunt.

I am extremely, extremely discombobulated and have had the weirdest month and a half of my life.


I am in a field targeted (as in, there have been high profile arrests and at least one unexplained death of similarly situated people), by the current administration. About two months ago, I received online death threats due to work I did for a year helping people seeking asylum. This was with one organization almost a decade ago, I don’t do that now and am not politically radical anything. They found my address and sent deliveries as a way to try to scare me.


I had already planned to move abroad with the help of a friend, and my spouse did not seem opposed and might even want to come. Well, as I got further in planning, spouse became more against it, started screaming at me and insisting I was completely crazy (even though spouse saw and knew I was personally threatened). Eventually, one day this got so far that spouse contacted my parents (I am nearly middle aged), told them everything, used a local crisis team to essentially threaten me with psychiatric hospitalization, took my passport, ID, and cards, and threw things at me.

So, I had to scrap my initial plan and rethink. For a few weeks I played the game and pretended to go along with the idea that I was in fact wrong and crazy, but also asked to fly to another part of the country to see family. I also contacted another friend who had already left to a separate foreign country than I had been thinking about.

Got my IDs and cards back for the trip. Got on the domestic flight, changed planes at stopover, and instead left the country, to an unusual place I have never been before. I have very significant help and sponsorship from my best friend who moved here with family, but it’s all hard and scary. Not to mention this is a very, very different place. Even the week itself is structured differently, as in weekends fall on different days, and the weather is difficult to get used to. Fortunately visas are easy and relatively fast, and I can continue my skilled remote job.


I just feel so much like Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. Definitely not in Kansas any more, and I get Emerald City vibes from where I’m at now.


Nevertheless, I’m pleased I can post here and this small part of life is the same. Thank you all for keeping it going.
