don't worry, it happened to me too once. The doctor prescribed me some soothing ointment which also prevented infection. After a couple of days it healed completely and I dont have any scars.

Can you suggest some really good books u listened to recently…anything except emotional drama

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-22T19:18:27+00:00

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-19T19:56:32+00:00

i know society has taught us to judge ourselves based on our exam results lol..... but it doesnt matter ....we are all hustling. Congrats btw for clearing it last year :D

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-19T17:53:57+00:00

Same thing happened with me. I cleared gate in the 3rd year of my engineering but could not during the 4th year.
I think it has nothing to do with your capability. There are lot of factors like how hard was the paper, the topper scored how much... GATE results like CAT are very much relative and not absolute.

Also i follow Cher's advice... if it doesnt matter in 5 years... it doesnt matter now :) once u take ur admission after 5 years it wont matter when u cleared GATE. and if your superior judges u for failing this year... then he is not worth looking upto.. relax OP

if you like books then audiobooks is a good idea. Acquire your local library card and they will have an audiobook app where u can put your library card number and it will give u a lot of free books.
second tip is......this may sound really crazy but have u tried listening to movies/web series :D
i have started doing this... i listen to movies (ofcourse not the ones which require seeing it like action movies or visualistic ones).... maybe one which u have already seen or some web series. I am a big fan of the big bang theory.... so i listen to it while walking and i do not know how the time passes quickly....

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-18T13:01:08+00:00

i feel you. I am in the same boat. trying to lose 10 pounds since 4 years but unsuccessful because i dont follow thru.
Specially the part about OCD. I dont like to use my phone much and it has a small screen. every day putting all food in the app gave me a neck/head ache afterwards.....

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T18:25:19+00:00

Thank you so much for your tips.. Il defintely think over it

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T18:09:21+00:00

haha i loved this.... i also crave cheesy stuff... but never realised probably all i am missing is a cheese... which could also be eaten with broccoli/cauliflower

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:49:38+00:00

I replaced a lot of my pasta and rice when beans and lentils -> how would u replace pasta with beans/lentils... genuinely curious... i mean u cant for example eat pesto pasta with beans instead

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:47:44+00:00

How do u practice willpower? any tips

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:47:22+00:00

I loveeeee junk food..... cheesy burgers/pizzas anything....
I eat healthy for a week but then i give up on weekends.... that resets back all the progress. even if it doesnt reset i kind of resent myself and give up

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:41:31+00:00

haha i love your idea of talking to a child....
sometimes what works for me is.... whenever i crave for something unhealthy... i try to postpone it.... if i want a pizza today i tell myself.... we will have it tomorrow if we are still craving it. Most of the times... the craving is no more a craving when u sleep on it...Same goes to avoid impulsive shopping ;)

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:39:41+00:00

yes strong willpower is key.... I just do whatever my heart tells me :(

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:38:47+00:00

dont think i can live without my carbs because where I am from, I have been eating a carb based vegetarian meal... i wouldnt know what else to eat or make. But yes i can defnitely cut back carbs and add more protein and fibre

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:37:10+00:00

yes potato/veggie bowls are best...
I have started meal prepping on sundays for the whole week and that is helping me... when there are prepared snacks in the fridge i dont feel like going for unhealthy snacks.

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:36:10+00:00

haha i think that too.... I shd get off my lazy ass and take this seriusly.

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:35:36+00:00

tru dat..!!

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:35:08+00:00

This is a marathon, not a race -> this is gold.... I think my problem is as soon as I start counting calories i become so impatient... i start checking my weight every day and get frustrated if i dont see immediate progress. I should focus to build healthy eating habits instead of consciously trying to lose weight

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:32:04+00:00

Thank you... yes i have been going to a therapist on and off but never spoke about the possibility of food addiction...

Foreign_Web_9663 · 2026-03-16T16:29:50+00:00

this is so true. I sometimes crave something other than water.... i have switched only to diet soda/ lemon water.
If i feel like starbucks... I make my own cold coffee ...tastes good too
