You're not fat and you eat unlimited fruit? God bless you. I do enjoy fruit and it does have a lot of nutrients. I'm not eating a lot of sugar. The main thing I did was added a lot of fruit. It doesn't work for me at all. I wonder if some people's bodies process fruit better than others. All that fructose does need to go through the liver. Go for it, man. Watermelon is the best.

Never been to Makro, but Big C and Tops seem good to me. What do you expect from a supermarket? Topless cashiers? And they have different products, so might be worth going to more than one.

A mother choking her own daughter ... that's some seriously messed up brainwashing by a purely evil religious doctrine.

Yeah, fruit does have a lot of nutrients. But fruit appears to have been the main culprit in my weight gain, so I'm going back to Keto and cutting down drastically on fruit. Even the UK Diabetes Association is pushing 5 servings a day. But I just read that our ancestors took in way less fructose daily. So if 5 servings a day are not causing you to get fat, God bless you and keep going for it.

being allowed to drink beer and get drunk on the beach at 7 AM?

You can have a base in Thailand and be nomadic 2-3 months a year. And avoid buying an expensive house. So this will make it much more affordable than the numbers you crunched.

I started a similar thread a few days ago. My last post was suggesting to download the iHerb app on your phone. I haven't tried it yet because I did manage to access the website.

Yes, but a condo in Bangkok or Pattaya won't stick out like a sore thumb as building the most lavish home in a remote village.

supermarkets use a lot of tricks least expensive items on the lower shelves or harder to find

someone started the same thread a couple weeks ago WW3 could happen, I guess but the media enjoys the mind control games and playing on people's fears too much so may not happen right away it's way too much fun to scare the crap out of everyone

Impossible to avoid controversy. Even a pic of one of your dishes has caused controversy may as well join in the trump threads.

not sure what you mean. some of them are making good money, if you factor in sponsors. and what else are they spending it on?

there's pros and cons. child may not have a father much longer, but will inherit a lot and be set for life maybe, assuming he's not broke which he probably isn't if the 20 year old is with him. and a lot of fathers are horrible anyway. so some kids are better off without one.

Well, I met a girl. Not a hooker. She worked at 7-11 and she wanted me to help her transition into having her own business. In retrospect, maybe I should have considered taking her on and helping her out. But I got a bit nervous that she would hit me up for a lot of startup capital. She wanted to start a restaurant. But I did speak to a bar girl. I'm not sure she has any plans and dreams other than to keep working the bar until she can pay off her home in Isaan. Or find a foreign husband/sponsor. But I'm guessing not all bar girls have any ambitions other than to keep making money in the bars until they have enough or find a sponsor. They have no ambitions for any other career, at least some of them it seems.

Greece has a similar problem. Locals are being priced out by Airbnb rentals. Greedy landlords are also to blame for the problem, not just digital nomads

didnt read the whole story. is that criminal negligence? like leaving a child in a hot car too long.

Do people that positive truly exist? I guess. I won't accuse you of Pollyanna.

so you come on to AN in bursts ... start a bunch of threads ... then disappear for months on end? that sounds like a good strategy. so the forum doesn't wear you down.

maybe one of the most over-rated bands? some catchy songs, but ... better music out there. coldplay, keane ...

some women do it on purpose to get men to fight over them. not worth it. just walk away and find another woman.

tweeter and the monkey man were hard up for cash they stayed up all night selling cocaine and hash

Where were the available men in the village before she had to leave for Pattaya to support herself?

Ukraine needs to kick Zelensky out and get someone with a political background. Guy was a freakin' ACTOR !!!

Ok, harrisfan. What I want from you is ....
