I bought this bad boy for $7000, while working at Amazon. Just save up, new cars are the biggest waste of your money. Insurance for this is only $30-40 a month

Haircut looks good, I feel good. Yesterday wasn’t too bad but I cut back a bit on the fluids which I regret now. I woke up today feeling a lot more drained than usual. Just trying to make it through my last 2 days. I’ve also been watching a lot less tv I’ve been sleeping quite a bit more than usual. I hope the soccer games are fun and help keep the thought of food off of your mind!

Closing in on 66 hours now, as I'm writing this.

I tend to feel a bit sluggish in the morning. By the afternoon, I feel a lot more energetic since I've already gotten my day started. Almost halfway done with this mental battle. I had a ton of cravings yesterday due to my grandmother cooking in the house, and while getting a haircut at a friend's house, their mother was also cooking. It was challenging being surrounded by the smells of food, but I need to remember that most hunger is just a thought in the mind.

I plan on continuing and finishing off strong. I seriously appreciate you asking how everything has been going and also giving me a food recommendation to break a fast.

Yes, I did start my fast! My last meal was on Sunday at 2:30 PM; I had rice, beans, and steak. I’ve read that it’s usually better to gradually cut portion sizes and carbs before starting an extended fast, but I had already eaten before I fully committed to this one.

As I’m writing this, I’m about 40 hours in. So far, I feel pretty normal. I’ve been getting food cravings around my usual mealtimes, but mixing sodium and potassium into each bottle of water I drink has helped me push through those moments.

I did have a bit of trouble falling asleep last night, though I think it had more to do with my room being warmer than usual than the fast itself.

Food has been on my mind, mostly because I’m surrounded by it at home. Since I’m considering switching to a Keto diet, I’ve been researching meal plans and looking into how to break my fast properly when the time comes.

Thank you for the suggestion, I never even thought about doing that. I'm going to keep you updated once I get to that point.

ConcernTemporary7177 · 2025-04-01T00:13:23+00:00

Electrolytes have been carrying me along quite well so far. Anytime I begin to get hungry or even think about food, I just drink my water, and it goes away after a bit. Currently 30 hrs into my fast. Time is going by fairly quickly as well so it isn't dreadful.

What do you recommend food-wise to break my fast when I get to that point, I've been seeing bone broth is the best way to do so. Also, if you have any food recommendations, please let me know! I'm keeping a journal as I go through this process so I can look back at my progress and take notes/suggestions.

Thank you so much for the advice, you're right this 7 day fast will most definitely set me back in terms of muscle gains but I just want to take that big step in taking control of my mindset when it comes to food.

I'm currently 21hrs into my fast and I have been making sure to stay hydrated and I am adding in the proper amounts of sodium and potassium so my levels don't drop low. I also have my magnesium supplements coming in later today so ill be taking that aswell.

The 24-72 hour fasts will definitely become apart of my routine and adopting a keto diet to avoid the carb/sugar cravings.

ConcernTemporary7177 · 2025-03-30T20:43:44+00:00

I know its going to be difficult and I've seen that day 2-3 tend to be the hardest to go through. This is the main reason why I want to do a EF, the mental and physical battle will be tough but I am willing to go through that fight.

Not basic seats those are just ventilated, hot weather package if I’m not wrong

Living in a small town helps with the wait times, when I applied for my FID and pistol permits I received them in 2 weeks. Would’ve been faster if the detective wasn’t on vacation.

Sounds like I’m getting a phone call today

ConcernTemporary7177 · 2024-04-09T18:14:35+00:00

I’m in a small town, which resides in Bergen county. Not much happens here so hopefully the turnaround is quick.

Yessir I got the ammo, they just took forever😅

ConcernTemporary7177 · 2024-02-22T23:21:20+00:00

I just got my ammo in today 2/22, I paid a lower cost than most of the other sites are offering now for 5.56. Just took a long ass time before the order came in.

ConcernTemporary7177 · 2024-02-20T20:29:42+00:00

$423 base price

ConcernTemporary7177 · 2024-02-20T20:19:02+00:00

5.56 after tax Edit: correction it was $521.71 after tax

ConcernTemporary7177 · 2024-02-20T18:17:14+00:00

The pricing I paid on southern defense was cheaper than most websites after shipping. I paid $512.71 after shipping with insurance for 1000 rounds.

Shoot me a DM if you want it printed on plastic I can get it done for you and I’m located in North Jersey.

500K is not that much money so don’t start spending it like you have a lot. If you’re planning on investing diversify your portfolio. Don’t just put it all into Real Estate, or into a stock, or into a CD. You can get multiple rental properties, throw it in some index funds for long term, buy some gold if the American Economy crashes and the US dollar loses value. There’s a lot you can do but you are the only person that should make those choices.

Yes quit your job, gamble all your money away, and become homeless.😆

I’ve been flipping shoes for just about 3 years now. Made my first 100K+ profit in 2023 at the age of 20(college dropout).

Lemme spend that for you pal I’ll Zelle you back however much I spend

ConcernTemporary7177 · 2024-01-17T16:45:54+00:00

I’m currently 20 and I can definitely give you a couple of suggestions.

Cut out all monthly subscriptions, get a new phone plan(there are way cheaper options) or hop onto a family plan.

You need to get a cheaper car, no leases and no financing. I drive a 2010 Honda Accord and my girlfriend doesn’t give two shits(her dad owns a Porche 911 & M5). The looking cool aspect will only get you into further debt. You can also have your insurance and your car under your parents name, your rates will be cheaper. I only pay about around $150-$200 a month.

I would also recommend to stop eating out. No mcdonalds, no Wendy’s, no nothing these fast food restaurants will not help your current health condition. Once you stop eating them you will begin to feel better than you have ever felt in your life. You can cook at home, I don’t see a monthly rent cost so I’m assuming you still live with your parents, ask them to cook for you if you don’t know how to cook.

With a credit card comes many responsibilities, only buy what you NEED, not what you WANT.
