    My weight loss journey. Need advice with weight loss goal.

    HEALTH 
    It’s been a while since I posted in this thread, so I’ll make this concise. The bad news: I’m STILL prediabetic. The good news: I’m BARELY prediabetic. Why is that “good” news? Because your A1C (blood sugar) is measured like this: 6.5% is diabetic, and 5.6% and lower is the safe zone. My...

    Basic Financial Intelligence is Fastlane: Some Simple Strategies to Use Now.

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    MJ, YOU ARE TRULY THE MASTER!!! I don’t know what I’d do without your insight. Feel free to laugh (or cringe) at me as I ask this: any suggestions as to where I can invest in closed end municipal bond funds?

    Funny you say this…I don’t eat cup noodles because they are mostly devoid of nutritional value and are overloaded with sodium. But tell me this: ever heard of someone who had cup noodles think “I want graham crackers and chocolate covered marshmallows in my mouth”? Apparently, somebody’s...

    I just uninstalled HealthyWage and will no longer be using it. By the way, I was wrong…the money I won was $3.81, not $3.48. … Ok, that is STILL MINUSCULE. Again, MJ DeMarco, you are right about the “Destroyed By Free” thing. To all the people who signed up for the free challenge and...

    Looking at my initial post, I think I will need to get some bloodworm done on me soon; I need to know if blood sugar, cholesterol and Vitamin D levels have improved.

    I think what I REALLY WANT is to not be pre-diabetic anymore. That is what I was when I started this thread; I also want to lower my bad cholesterol, since it was higher than it should be.

    How many poison M&Ms does your business have?

    EXECUTION NEWSLETTER 
    The thing about me is that I am a NEGATIVE PERSON. And by “NEGATIVE PERSON”, I mean I take negative reviews more seriously than positive ones. Granted, some negative reviews are vapid, but as is the case with THIS REVIEW, negative reviews are there for a REASON. MJ, you said this review is...

    HEALTH 
    Ok, it has been MONTHS since I last posted on this thread, so it is time for a LONG OVERDUE update: I LOST A F*ck TON OF WEIGHT! A little over 30 lbs. to be exact. It seems changing my diet made all the difference (berry smoothies, carrots with homemade hummus, even a soft breakfast taco with...

    HEALTH 
    Actually, I lost 10 pounds in one month. I WISH I could lose 10 pounds in 2 weeks, but that would mean losing 5 pounds in a week, which would be dangerous. My initial post stated that I resorted to using HealthyWage (which I did last month, sorry for not being specific) in order to get me to...

    Ok, here is a progress update: I JUST DROPPED 10 POUNDS! AND no, No, NO, NO! I DO NOT intend to stop here, else, I will gain them back! I found a powerful ally in my weight loss journey: beets! I slice the beet and pressure cook it, and I use the beet greens (the leaves that grow from the...

    I guess I should have said UNSWEETENED almond milk, since almond milk has a low glycemic index. How do I know that? I followed your suggestion and asked chat gpt. Speaking of which, I just asked it to make me a slow carb plan. Also I drink water RELIGIOUSLY. I stopped drinking sugar water...

    HEALTH 
    OK, then how about this? I have my own Blendtec blender, and I have been working it like crazy. For milk, I use HOMEMADE almond milk; any STORE bought almond milk I get, I read the ingredients; in this case I bought some that has ONLY 3 ingredients: water, almonds, and salt. That’s it. As...

    HEALTH 
    Long story short, I am obese, which is why I am pre-diabetic, my bad cholesterol level is in the warning zone, and my weight problem is inhibiting my body’s ability to absorb Vitamin D. Because of this, I had to make snap judgments. I spent quite a chunk of money on gym memberships, then I...

    I don’t know what to do with a $75k loan.

    REAL ESTATE 
    Ok, that makes sense, since land is always in demand. I think I can talk to my real estate agent about that. You say sell it in a few years; I guess that means the land will appreciate in time? In that case, I guess 3-4 years would make a good minimum?

    I don’t know what to do with a $75k loan.

    REAL ESTATE 
    First of all, no, I haven’t taken out any money yet. I was following the advice posted on this GOLD thread. I made calls to a real estate agent, and a mortgage broker. The latter told me I qualified for $75k, mainly because, I make little money. The first thing that came to my mind was...

    Here is my intro

    INTRO 
    I read most of the book ”Fastlane Millionaire”, and right now, I am one of the “slowlaners”. I work 2 part time jobs, one at a warehouse, the other with Uber. I like the pay for both jobs, but I have to face the following reality: I can’t do this forever. I have thousands of dollars in debt...

    I've Read The Millionaire Fastlane!

    GOLD! HOT! 
    I read most of the book, which for me is enough to get the picture. Sidewalkers throw away money, slowlaners toil for a sparse sum of money, fastlaners toil for wealth by doing their own thing. Also, to make millions, you must serve millions.
