    Carbs, sugar, seed oils rule the world now. In the past, I have always gained weight on my trips to Thailand….but in January 2022, I was obese. I cut out sugar, rice, potatoes, bread, pasta…etc… and only eat Beef, Salmon, Eggs, Sardines, raw, multi-vegetable salads with berries and use extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar dressing. I also eat nuts, kimchi, sauerkraut. I ate one meal a day in 4 hours and fasted 20 hours. I walked 8 miles every other day. By October 2022, I had lost 60 lbs, got off 7 medications I had been taking for 20+ years and have had the best blood test results ever. Two years and 8 months later, I still follow the same lifestyle and have maintained my weight. I never get hungry.

    Honestly, that is the kind of market I like. Not so large you can get lost, not so packed you can't move, and the veggies and fruits looked so fresh. I would certainly spend some of my time there frequently. I recommend you add walnuts for brain health and Brazil nuts for cholesterol. Start there, anyway. 😉

    Loved this video. Funny watching into the future. Looked it up on the map to see how far from Chiang Mai main city. My husband wanted to jump through the tv and have some of those potatoes. Lol. Can you tell me your favorite sub district that would suit an expat non Thai couple to retire too.

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Thank you Sonia! Whenever I see potatoes I'm a happy man 🤣. The place I would recommend is the most popular... Hang Dong. It would be the easiest to settle with an Expat community. But my favourite is Saraphi or Nong Hoi. Not so popular with the Expats but still very close to the city.

    Hey Wayne great videos.. just a question , with passport renewal you did a video on it a while back with vfs global , just wondering do I need to go there in person ,and roughly cost..

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I think you do need to go in person mate, because they need to check everything. It was around £150 for big passport with extra pages. Took about 2 weeks for me. Great service. It’s worth looking at their website , they might accept mail documents now. I don’t think they do, but worth a look.

      Try and negotiate an offer with the host. Sometimes if a host is running a subletting operation (eg. offering loads of condos in the same development) they're cool with taking a lowball offer to avoid a condo just sitting empty
