Hello Everyone · 7:50pm Dec 27th, 2020
Hi all,
Hope you are all safe and healthy during this holiday season. This year may have been horrible to say the least, buuut for me, it's been a bit shocking. And not in a bad way.
I kicked serious ass this semester... and honestly, this entire year. I lost ~90 lbs to get to a healthy body weight, I got into my number 1 choice for a clinical/research placement for 2021-2022, I did great at my Graduate Assistantship position teaching other students, I obliterated my comprehensive exams, and I aced my finals. I couldn't have ever imagined any of this being possible a year ago.
I even went on my first date since like 2015... which was my first date at the time. It didn't go anywhere, but still. My autistic ass WENT ON A DATE. WOO!
And that brings me to FimFiction: I'm writing a new story. For the first time in over a year, I'm writing a new story. I don't know when it will be done, exactly, but I'm excited for when it will be done. It'll be a bit... err, "different" but it's gonna be very well-written indeed. I'm both nervous and excited for it. Hint: it's VaporSky again.
Take care, and stay safe everyone!

Congrats this is great news! And we can use all the good/great news we can get this darn year
EDIT:
I need to drop more or less the same so... how did you do it?! Spill the beans !
congrats dude. That's really good news, I'm glad things have been going better for you. Remind me again what you're going to school for. If I remember right, it was Audiology but you changed course a bit. Congrats on the weight loss in particular. I've been loosing weight myself and I know how hard that can be. I look forward to your new story.
Hell yeah! Congratulations!
This year has been a hell of a trip, that's for sure. Some highs, some lows. A lot of lows, actually. But here we stand as better individuals in spite of it all. Here's to many more.
That's awesome! Good luck with your story and your possible new SO!

Yes, indeed! And as for my weight, it's just making sure that the calories you're eating are less than the calories you're burning every day. I used MyFitnessPal to make sure I was losing at most 2-3 lbs per week, with that pace slowing down as I got closer and closer to my goal weight. Overall, I was motivated to lose weight and so I found it not too terrible! Well, not always at least...
I would also recommend watching dudes like ObesetoBeast and Greg Doucette online about it. They've got good tips and info.
Good to hear from you man!

That is correct, yes! I'm just pursuing a much more heavily research track now, so I'm much happier now that I'm not full-time clinic day in and day out. Glad you're looking forward to the new story, too! It's gonna be... very, very different. I'll just say that. Lol.

Thanks, man! The best we can do is just the best we can do, after all.

Thanks! Glad you're looking forward to the new story, too. Although I'm still very much single at the moment, heheh. The date didn't go anywhere, but it was still okay!
That's incredible Arwhale!!! Keep up the hard work, and stay safe!

Ah, calory counting... I did that a few years back (although, I dropped 'only' 20 Kg), but I got it up again I will try it again this year, will see how it will go.
Make sure to keep controlling yourself, I failed miserably at that once I got to my desirable weight, and it all went to hell
