i saw this post on x. it made for an interesting read and many thoughts well articulated.

Thank you Ralf and Upnotover, guess i have too. Seems that is not possible to fill in until before 3 days of traveling, and funny enough can not opt for Thailand as country of residence. Thks for the reply. i did not have my PR yet when i traveled due to the Covid and my family visiting me here after, but then will end up doing so.

Good evening. Would anyone know if the new Thailand Digital Arrival Card is required to be filled in by PR holders? I am flying overseas over Songkran for the first time since getting my PR and will come back in the first week of May and would like to avoid any hassles. Unfortunately on the immigration website i did not see any information regarding this. Any advice would be appreciated. Ant.

Good evening. I will be flying over Songkran to see my family in Europe and will be coming back to Thailand on the3rd of May when this new requirement comes active. There would like to know if anyone has seen somewhere, if Permanent Resident Permit holders are required to fill this form in or not, as i can not find any information on it on the immigration website. Any reply would be appreciated. Ant.

i have lost since the first of January 15 Kg, so a little less then 3 months. What worked for me very well is eating 4-5 boiled of Eggs and a greek yogurt for lunch in the beginning to ease into Keto and later into OMAD. I started off with walking, but upped to 4 K at a slow pace in the morning and some Basic heavy weightlifting 3 times per week (Incline bench press, deadlifts, squats, military press and bent over rows for 30 min) Now nearly 3 months in, i am not hungry anymore at lunch time and eat my boiled eggs with my caesar salad in the evening. ( i did have some cheat meals once or twice a week with spare ribs, pizza, steak etc) and it felt pretty effortless like you. For me the eggs really stuffed me in the beginning. I guess the same as ozempic would work.

doing calves stretches helped me to get rid of shin splints in the past. It feels like it is the bone, but it it actually from overload on the muscles that are not strong enough.

Dr. Doctor Somjot, May i kindly ask for the location and name of your practise. I have a crown that got broken in the last year that needs replacement. Not sure if Smile, dental clinic above is the one as it was posted by someone else. Thank you Ant.

I guess the reason to have low calorie dishes is too loose weight? but maybe think next to low calories also about satieting food. From the 1st of January until now i have made lunch consistently out of 5 hard boiled eggs, 14 Cherry tomatoes to eat together with the eggs for taste, a greek yogurt, and a dragon fruit or small 150 kcl pack of Almonds. This will get you to around 550-600 kcl and it keeps my stomach filled so much i have to nearly force my self to eat dinner. I dropped from 123.5 KG to 114.7 KG this morning, so roughly 6 weeks. ( i do walk over 6000 steps a day and incorperated 3 times a week of 5 Compound weightlifting exercises) I did stop alcohol mostly, but have had days of a bottle of wine with a 200 lbs sirloin steak and pizza from the pizza company because my son wanted it, but because of my lunch could not eat more then 2-3 slices in the evening for a few days. Anyway, seems like the eggs work to me like an extremely cheap dose of ozempic filled with complete amino acids for good protein nutrition. For the Thai dishes, obviously the pad phak ruam (fried mixed vegetables are probably lowest on calories depending on oil usage) but grilled chicken and prawns would be better from protein and filling perspective making you eat less because your are less hungry. Ant.

I was thinking before of getting ozempic pills of similar, but what i read about them, is that is mostly just takes away the appetite. I found i can do the same with eggs xD. As my new year resolve i decided to become a bit more healthy again, so for January i did not drink any alcohol, started walking daily, 3 times a week 30 min weight lifting and doing some running on on my day off. Also i started to make my lunch with just eating boiled eggs (5 for lunch with 14 cherry tomatoes, 20 almonds and a greek yogurt or dragon fruit) this has been strangely very satieting (for about 550 calories) and making me not hungry until dinner. (there i eat something like a sweet potato, carrot, onion boiled with a chicken breast from 7/11 and maybe and egg or 2 more soft boiled) i really have to make an effort to get to 1800 calories my samsung app says i should eat. I find this much easier to sustain then dong intermittent fasting or other ways of fasting due to the satiety of the eggs. Added benefit of eggs is that they are cheap, full of all the amino acids to retain or built muscle. The stuff about cholestrol is outdated as your own body makes it and compensates by the way. Just doing this has made me lost weight from the first of January 122.9 Kg to this morning 115 Kg feeling full all the time. (so roughly i lost 7 kg in 42 days. (all my weighing measurements are at the same time after stool.) Just some food (Eggs, Eggs, Eggs xD) for thought

Thank you for the reply scorecard. For who needs the Info, Jomtien immigration was able to do it, so that will save me 2 trip's to Bangkok thankfully now and in the future. Ant.

to be honest a maximum speeding ticket of TBH 1,000 or the same for running a red light is a joke. That should be increased for road safety imo.

i saw yesterday 2 girls on one motorbike there that looked like they killed themselves as they were not moving anymore and police there to take pictures. Believe it was Boonsampan. Did not see it anywhere online, but maybe in the Thai local news as no foreigner connection was evident.

this was East Pattaya, so where most people will live long time. So he will probably have been the son of a local expat. With a young boy who just got his driving license. Generally dangerous driving there with all the motorbikes. This is actually my fear by the time my son grows up and gets 18. I dont want him to ever drive a motorbike around here with the daily motorbike accidents and deaths i see here on the road. But buying him a pickup of some sort will keep him safe, but my fear is that he will hit someone like this when driving by himself and not having road experience yet to handle all traffic situations as you should really think for the other drivers here.

The below someone posted in the Russian streamer thread. According to this, it would not be illegal as per the last Q and A

Thank you for the reply Scorecard. Yes, i received my blue PR book, Red police book and am written into the blue tabiaan baan of our house, so am all good for that xD. My question is for when i want to travel overseas and want to retain my PR (obviously after all the pain getting it xD), if i can do the required paperwork for this at Pattaya immigration or if this can only be done in Bangkok? I did not travel since receiving my PR a few years ago and would like to save myself a few hours of traveling xD. for the record TM 13 as per the immigration link is the application for endorsement of re-entry permit as SS below which, not the application for permament residence in the kingdom (TM 9), which i think you are referring too. https://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/downloads_en/ Thank you for the reply.
