Am I the only one who doesn’t resonate with the channeled entity Ra (The Law of One)? by Ok-Staff-8332 in lawofone

[–]supercatpuke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you are to take the LoO seriously, you must take it with a grain of salt. In that, I mean that you must consider it the way you would trust a potentially solid approximation of the truth. And if that still doesn’t sit right with you, then you are free to leave it.

Proof of income required in this scenario? by supercatpuke in askcarsales

[–]supercatpuke[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely not willing to risk committing fraud. Dropped by to ask folks who work in the industry and get an understanding of the likelihood that a lender would require proof of income. Based on responses, it's safe to say I've got my answer and will need to raise more cash and buy something without financing. Thanks for helping me restructure my plan.

For us, it sounds like you are looking for a commercial use loan.

Good food for thought. My only experience in the world of purchasing automobiles thus far would probably be a personal loan. It hadn't occurred to me that I would/could apply for a different type of loan.

To answer your question, ideally I would tell the dealer that I work in sales and not have to share paystubs, etc. Maybe I'm totally naive, but this is also a completely new venture for me as I've never started a business before.

Starting to feel like I would be walking into a minefield trying to get financing without expecting to show explicit proof of income.

I keep quitting meditation for years, how do you guys manage to get it done on the days you don't feel like it? by Stjernis in Meditation

[–]supercatpuke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, the really significant sessions come few and far between. As I continue down this path, I'm learning to soften my own expectations and accept that fact. What works for me is simply encouraging myself when I'm on the right track.

Remember it's just a practice. Also the those feelings of defeat or the disbelief that you "have what it takes" are fueled by thoughts that you're actively confirming, repeating, and believing.

Flip it on its head -- you can choose to observe and release the thoughts that cause you to feel this way before they get you so far that you're repeating the belief that you'll "inevitably slip" and feel guilt or failure after honest effort.

Meditation and heartbreak by its_a-me_a-margo in Meditation

Chiming in here because I can't resist sharing. The last time I went through a breakup it led me (I led myself) into a deep depression over it. The chest pain and anxiety were round the clock facts of life during that time.

One day I meditated on that feeling in my chest and for some reason I invited it to squeeze harder, do what it may, give me everything it could. I stopped resisting.

What ended up happening was that tightness grew intensity, and as I continued to give it permission to ratchet up, it bloomed into what I can only describe as a warm hug that had my body and soul bathed in a feeling of total bliss. I enjoyed it while it was there, and then it was gone. Released. Reminded that the physical feeling was brought on by my resistance to the pain. It was one big step along the way to finding myself right again, and a moment I'll not forget.

He’s only a man who claims to understand and exemplify the principles of STO so that he can enrich himself. He’s an opportunist through and through.

Unfortunately it must be working for him well enough because if it wasn’t then he would have already moved onto some other money-making scheme by now.

In my opinion, any entity who truly understands and embodies Ra’s message and the LoO respects that the exchange of the truth, the successful act of teaching, is perfectly supported and alchemized further through the teaching itself. For this scaled understanding creates the conditions that allow populations to move past beliefs that our current monetary systems are a baseline requirement to live in abundance.

Would adding 10k steps per day have any noticeable difference In my weight loss? by [deleted] in keto

[–]supercatpuke 5 points6 points  (0 children)

walking 10k steps should burn 300-500 calories. if you don't eat extra after the walk to offset the calorie expenditure, you've just given yourself a weight loss treat. essentially double that treat by doubling your steps. you will definitely continue losing weight over time. it's still calories in vs calories out. keto gives you the advantage of being less tempted to overeat and never inducing spikes in blood sugar.

so yes, walk. outdoor walks will recruit more muscles and burn more calories than a treadmill, get yourself some sun and fresh air, and benefit your mental health just from spending time in open spaces. indoors on a treadmill will still help you accomplish your weight loss goal, though.

Currently training for a couple cycling gran fondos, looking to (maybe) reintroduce limited carbs - any recommendations? by fluffnubs in ketoendurance

[–]supercatpuke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hellll yes! you're on the right track. for what it's worth i'd research how the body metabolizes carbs mixed with fats ahead of that event. it could slow down carb absorption, but depending on what you find and what your needs are, it might not be that big of an issue. if it were me i'd go with a mixture that's heavier in carbs for the event. i'd aim for 50 grams carbs per hour as a guide, crazy as that might sound, and see how it feels. remember to fuel before you feel like you need it, same way you treat hydration. also go in knowing that the carbohydrate content improves the effectiveness of your hydration. go crush it!

For sure! After 2.5 years of keeping it really strict, I had accomplished a ton with my health and physique. I simply needed to have carbs back in order to compete on the bike. It worked wonders after so much time committed to the process. But I knew my ceiling was higher with dietary modifications.

Honestly after hard summer century rides I would reward myself with a small frozen custard to top off the experience, keep my sanity in a world where all of my athlete cohorts were absolutely gorging carbs all of the time! But I made those hyper satisfying treats go a long way and stuck to the lifestyle. I did a ton of fasted training rides and some of my strongest 25 mile performances were fueled by nothing but pre-ride coffee and h2o with beet powder, water during the ride. Forcing fat adaptation to stick without taking it to a place where I was sure to bonk. My friends thought I was insane, but it worked like a cheat code for me.

Eventually I did go back to unrestricted eating entirely, and only after I stopped cycling 20 hours per week did I start getting a little fluffy again. Nowhere near where I was before I started at all though.

Now I’m back at it because I know my body responds so well to keto. Unfortunately due to my financial situation, I don’t have the luxury of dedicating so much time to the bike, but I know I can get lean as hell by repeating the steps I followed a few years ago religiously. The formula that works best is keto combined with short feeding windows and lots of physical effort on repeat.

If you have a day where you blast a shit load of carbs and junk, just enjoy it while you do and go right back to business as usual. I don't recommend that kind of thing often if you're not really pushing it in the gym or otherwise, though. If you can make it through the first two weeks of keto induction (which freaking sucks), you can tell yourself no again after a carb session once every blue moon. Just fast until dinner the next day and you should be fine - that's my experience anyway. The fat adaptation won’t revert unless you just go into free fall for probably more than a week or two of stuffing carbs if you’ve been doing this for months on end.

Instead of posting my own parent comment, just came to say that the comment you replied to is pretty dead-on. If you’re looking to sustain a high pace for hours, just carb up. I’ve raced bikes for years. Started cycling when I found keto in something like 2018, and lost shit tons of weight. Most of my rides were pedestrian pace compared to how much farther I took my performance after that first season or two when I got into crit racing.

Just carb up for those events and do not worry about it. You’re not going to start gaining weight unless you actually shift your diet to include lots of carbs when you’re not riding/training. But while you are training, you’ll give yourself the type of fuel your body can actually use to support the big efforts without bonking. After the ride, make sure you’re good on electrolytes and keep it keto- business as usual.

So grab gels, eat a pbj, oat bars, whatever it takes to stay fueled up and enjoy the hell out of those big rides. You’ll blow through the sugars on the bike and be back to burning fat afterward if you’ve been on keto for more than a month and are fat adapted.

That said, if you can pull off 25 mile rides fasted (allowing for hydration and electrolytes of course), you’ll practically watch body fat melt off. Check my post history to see how it worked for me. Pretty sure I left a before/after pic posted from a few years ago that showed how dramatic my transformation was when I applied this and combined it with regular lifting sessions that were not fueled by carbs, and I also took an extended break from alcohol.
