thanks for the tips
Luckily I only have a mild case and have been symptom-free for a while, so I don't have to restrict my diet too much. I tend to eat pretty healthy in general anyway. I used to take probiotics & have smoothies/shakes often. I should definitely start again, cuz I know how helpful they are. I'm still on some meds, but I'm working to get off them. Hopefully things continue to go well for you.

hi guys. I have some personal/poker goals for this year which I think I'll have a better chance of completing if I post them publicly
personal info- 18 years old, freshman engineering student at a good university. after a rough first semester (failed a couple classes) I've decided to take a lighter load and refocus myself academically
personal goals:
[ ] pass all my classes
[ ] swim or do some sort of exercise a couple times a week
[ ] gain weight (this is hard because of Crohn's disease)

8-hour 10nl sesh tonight, graph lookin good haha. tryna put in 4k tomorrow
i'm thinking about aerospace or electrical, but I also might switch majors. thanks for the advice, I've been to the gym several times but haven't set up a regular schedule. i have scoliosis too, lol

its like i'm talking to myself 12 years ago minus the crohns disease bit. What type of engineering are you looking into? I passed my lifeguard test at 18 so i can tell you that swimming is not a great way to gain weight, eating big meals 6 times a day and join a gym, try to get a coach to show you how to deep squat correctly then dump him. Build your workouts around these 3 exercises: squat, deadlift and dip[weighted dip as you improve] forget the beach press as weighted dip is far more affective and less dangerous. Good luck, i have scoliosis in my back so i could never squat correctly

exceptionally solid day been 6-8 tabling the past few sessions and it works well as long as I don't have any distractions. made a few buyins on my laptop, and this graph is from the desktop:
back to 25nl tomorrow I think
bankroll: $509
yeah, aerospace is pretty interesting to me so I think I could deal with the extra work if I go with it, but you have a good point about jobs

GL getting out of that downswing. Just finished up my aerospace degree, my advice would be to only do it if you are really interested in aerospace engineering otherwise a mechanical engineering degree would be less time consuming and give you a broader selection of jobs when you get out of school with essentially the same math background. I have a couple friends who did electrical though and they had no trouble getting jobs.
