Reforming yourself

[Tennis]

Have you ever made major changes to your life/way of living?

How did it work out? Did it last? Have you seen others do it? I'm thinking about implementing some changes.

Yes.

How did it work out?

Good.

Did it last?

Yes and no.

Have you seen others do it?

Yes.

I'm thinking about implementing some changes.

Ok.

[Grimbold21]

Can one of those changes be getting yourself permanently banned?

We can only hope at this point.

I used to be a liberal.

[shadowmouse]

@Puupi Indeed, I couldn't have said it better myself. I'll second that.

I started masturbating a little more. So far, it has been very beneficial to my happiness.

The closest thing I can think of to fit this is weight loss.

How did it work out?

at 5ft 8in/170cm I weighed 240Lbs/108Kg, I lost 90Lbs/40Kg, so I'd say yeah, it worked out pretty well.

Did it last?

yes, I've kept the weight off for 8 years now, floating in the 150Lbs to 160Lbs range the whole time.

Have you seen others do it?

Yup.

Wasn't this the point of your "no thanks" thread?

I've currently switched from a 5 day work week to a 3 day work week.

It's working out extremely well and I think I may eventually just adopt the 4 day work week seniority permitting.

It'll last for as long as I want it to.

I've seen quite a few people adopt the 3 day work week throughout the years. It seems to be working for them quite well.

What do you want that you don't have?

When I was five, I hated mashed potatoes. Then when I was six I decided to try them and I loved them. That was really a key decision in my life.

Mashed potatoes are serious business and one of the great fruits of a joyful life. Especially because they're baked potatoes without the skin! Sour cream, butter, cheese and bacon!

I've changed my diet and started exercising more recently. I've lost around 16 pounds so far since last November, and I've been told I'm looking better than I previously did. When I'm not working, I'm trying to get out and go walking for at least half and hour, so I spend a bit less time sat at the computer.

I still have changes to make, pretty much to do with my mindset regarding social circles. I need to meet more people, go out more, and build a social life that right now is pretty small. But change takes time, it doesn't come quickly. Quoting Doctor Who here but we're all different people all through our lives, and that's not a bad thing. Everybody changes, just remember all the people you used to be.

Making major changes is really, really hard.

[Aucald]

I left the town I was born in and moved quite far away. Perhaps the best change I've ever made in my own life.

The real key in my eyes is to make sure it's on the plate mixing with all your meat juice, especially if it's beef, and then you can eat some with every bite of meat or vegetables.

Yes! Especially a lean burger with some brown gravy mixed with stringy green beans!

I quit smoking a year ago and gained 15 kilos in weight, which I can't seem to shake off. Now I question whether I've reformed myself for the better or not.
