Let's compile OVER 9000 personal reasons why 2016 wasnt such a bad year after all. 3

2016 was rough but, most of us rolled through it. we lost friends and idols along the way but for the most part we came out stronger.
Instead of moping and lamenting, let's compile OVER 9000 personal reasons why 2016 wasnt such a bad year after all.
I'll go first.
--I did a proof-of-concept diet where I ate unhealthy but brought fructose consumption (in the guises of added sugar and sugar products) down to the WHO recommendation of 15gr a day maximum. To my astonishment I lost 10lbs and in the subsequent months the pounds stayed off, demonstrating that indeed fructose is key to weightloss in nonalcohol imbiders as this university lecture alleges. giving me a major weapon to finally start losing weight.

Found a hobby that gives me something to look forward to and makes me incredibly happy and got me out of a somewhat major depression that I've been in for most of my life. 2016 has been a great year for me for the most part

To be honest, it was a good year. Nobody got busted, everyones chilling, doing what they should.
On a side note, I still feel like this last year has been a long one. 11/2015 - seizure from clonazolam WDS, knew it was coming.
11/2016, seizure from xanax withdrawal. I probably would not of had one if I didnt take every drug that was offered to me at the time. I only didnt piss dirty for amphetamins, meth, coke when I got tested at hospital. Side note, this bill is about 1/3 the cost I was thinking it would be, so im in good spirits.

Prisoner#1 said: I lost 40 by simply watching my caloric intake
I had someone asking me how I eat like a horse but never gain weight, I told them I count my macros, and keep an eye on my calories. I only count calories on days I don't exercise, which is once or twice a week, usually once a week though.
But many people don't realize just easy it is to overeat, it's really simple, especially if you're prone to adding sugar, butter, dressings to things to make them taste a certain way. Also, some things which are 'healthy' for you, aren't really healthy for you, like most artificial sweeteners, so you guys trying to lose weight, be leery of splenda, sweet & low, and equal because they tend to make people gain weight in the long run. For artificial sweeteners stick to stevia or monk fruit, my granny (RIP) got me on stevia when I was really young, and I always thank her for that because I don't do so hot with to much sugar in my diet, and I have came to like the stevia taste.
Anyway, about this thread, I have nothing against 2016.

Well alot of people could have died this year, me included, and they didn't. So that's good.
Kratom wasn't banned (yet)
And with any luck I will be closing on the house bid on back in September.
2016 has been a shitty year, and I won't call it anything it wasn't, but it left plenty of room for 2017 to be an awesome year.

i honestly feel really bad for all my friends and fellow shroomerites who had such a bad year this past year, because it was honestly so amazing for me. my life is better than it's ever been and i only see that upward trajectory continuing into '17.
my only issue with 2016 is that it doesn't seem like it was a real fuckin year, that shit went by so fast. felt like a month.

-I single handedly produced the most accurate election result prediction out of anyone I know in real life or any internet source I'm aware of
-I did okay in all of my classes
-I've gained a nice chunk of muscle mass and put on some good fat this year
-I got plugged into social organizations on campus
-I'm a motherfucking beast
