NOBNOM Winners and Other Updates

Sorry to hear about your Lyme disease.

Hopefully your cocktail of antibiotics 2 months will get you rid of it definitely.

No advice to give you cause I’m sure you’re already in hands of best doctors you chose very carefully.

Good luck.

P.S. Your ep. 1 and 2 with Tony Robbins were absolutely fantastic.

I already listened twice each.

And thanks for show notes with written questions and even with their chronology.

I have dream of finding time to just put together all, I mean really all questions you asked during your yet 38 episodes of podcasts.

Your questions are adapted to variety of your guests profiles, and that’s exactly what I would like to study with a look to the whole picture and 600-700 questions you asked.

Many many thanks for your works, time and the will you put to share all these with us, and unbelievable you do it for free people shouldn’t forget.

Get well soon 😉

Sorry to hear you got Lyme disease. A few friends of mine recently found out they had Lyme disease as well. I can help with the food allergies. My company has been detecting food allergies and food intolerances for 37 years. Please email me so we can expedite the test kit and give you the insights to further improve your diet and get you to optimal health.

Thanks for the updates. I had indeed been busy and had missed some of these things, so it’s nice to be able to catch up now that I’ve got a bit more time.

Tim,

Perhaps you would benefit from consulting the following Doctors about lymes disease:

These people will help you restore your health faster and nip this is the bud.

I hate to see you suffer as long as others have with this condition. (watch “under our skin”, a lyme documentary).

All the best,

Thanks Tim Ferris, Natasha Lynn and everyone who made me a winner! You people have almost got my habit changed. This challenge has influenced my behaviour a lot. It made me look beyond my procrastination and has made me more pro-active now. I found that when you talk to people, you get better insights, which in turn changes your outlook towards yourself. Sometimes, people don’t ask for help and they keep on doing the same thing over and over. You people and this challenge provided that sort of help.

Tim, sorry to hear about your disease. However, I believe you will get better. Let us know how we can contribute to make things better for you.

I personally contracted Lyme around the time you did. Had I not heard you mention the “bulls eye” bite mark on the Random Show, I would have stupidly ignored my symptoms. I’d like to see a post on your experience with Lyme Disease and how you recovered. I am taking “Bio K” probiotics daily following 3 weeks of Doxycycline. Luckily, I haven’t had any adverse effects and the antibiotics seemed to have worked. However, I’d like to know what to look out for the in the future and what tests I should have done. In Canada, Lyme Disease is taken very lightly and the testing is ineffective. Any insight you could provide on the subject would be helpful. Take care and NOLD (No Lyme Disease) on.

I also successfully completed the NOBNOM challenge, and I actually went a full 34 days, because I had started 3 days early. It was a funny coincidence actually, because I had done the challenge for a month, 2 months prior to you taking it up yourself, and I was writing a short ebook on the benefits of it myself. My objective was fat loss, and I was combining NOBNOM, cold showers, intermittent exercises, and ZMA and BCAA’s to produce my desired results. I was also experimenting with wet-daydreaming, but it’s probably getting a bit TMI if I go there, haha. Alas, all was a success for me. Cheers for the competition, and I hope you do more of these in the future Tim!

~Love, Jack.

I’ve got chronic Lyme disease and have suffered more than 2 years. It’s mostly why I ended up with your book, (4HWW). Between our difficult adoption and Lyme disease our time, money and energy is in the deficit. It’s pretty much muse or die in so many ways. I have plenty of ideas but with a $3-4K deficit each month, I fear I lack the time to launch something. Do you know where I could find a muse business for sale? Is that a good idea?

Tim,

NOBNOM was a lot of fun! I’d love to see other challenges like this for areas you have benefited from practicing restraint. For example caffeine, social media etc.

PS – The Tony Robbins episodes were awesome. So cool to hear you guys together.

Hi Tim,

I just wanted to say thanks for giving me the opportunity to take part in the NOBNOM challenge.

I am very grateful for the prize, but I am more grateful for how this challenge has kick-started a series of positive lifestyle changes, and has opened up opportunities to give back as a Lift coach.

To be perfectly honest, the past 2 weeks has seen me slip up on practically every habit I built since NOBNOM (including NOBNOM). Of course, no one is perfect, and I’m not going to beat myself up over it.

However, I’m more determined than ever to get back on track. The results were just too good for me to allow them all to slip away.

So as a way to say thanks, and to hold myself publicly accountable, I’m officially embarking on another 30-day challenge (NOM only this time, as I am meeting my newlywed best friend in Thailand in 2 weeks!).

So thanks again Tim and the Lift team!

I still not sure why I decided to attempt this challenge. I’ve been clean and sober over 4 year so the booze was normal, but the masterbation a new challenge. Most stressful month of my life, but ended with one heck of a story. On day 28 I got intimate with a partner and what a release.

Really rare find and worth the read: A quote from the great thinker and author C.S. Lewis on the topic.

” I agree that that the stuff about ‘wastage of vital fluids’ is rubbish. For me the real evil of masturbation would be that it takes an appetite which, in lawful use, leads the individual out of himself to complete (and correct) his own personality in that of another (and finally in children and even grandchildren) and turns it back: sending the man back into the prison of himself, there to keep a harem of imaginary brides.

And this harem, once admitted, works against his ever getting out and really uniting with a real woman. For the harem is always accessible, always subservient, calls for no sacrifice or adjustments, and can be endowed with erotic and psychological attractions which no real woman can rival.

Among these shadowy brides he is always adored, always the perfect lover: no demand is made on his unselfishness, no mortification is ever imposed on his vanity. In the end, they become merely the medium through which he increasingly adores himself.

Do read Charles Williams’ Descent into Hell, and study the character of Mr. Wentworth. And it is not only the faculty of love which is thus sterilized, forced back on itself, but also the faculty of imagination.

The true exercise of imagination, in my view, is (a) To help us to understand other people (b) To respond to, and, some of us, to produce art. But it has also a bad use: to provide for us, in shadowy form, a substitute for virtues, successes, distinctions, et cetera which ought to be sought outside in the real world — e.g., picturing all I’d do if I were rich instead of earning and saving.

Masturbation involves this abuse of imagination in erotic matters (which I think bad in itself) and thereby encourages a similar abuse of it in all spheres.

After all, almost the main work of life is to come out of our selves, out of the little, dark prison we are all born in. Masturbation is be avoided as all things are to be avoided which retard this process. The danger is that of coming to love the prison.”

(-C.S. Lewis, from the book that is a collection of his letters entitled: “Yours, Jack”, pp 292-293).

Hello Tim. Love your podcast. Just listened to your podcast with Fat Burning Man and your troubles with the gut biome. Have you tried the suggestions in the RHR podcast?

https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/rhr-testing-treating-digestive/id372257397?i=347822770&mt=2.

These seem very thorough and Chris Kresser has had good success with this approach.

I just want to say,I love You Timothy😀.
