Serious, sad & Depressing update (NOT for youtube)... mukbang chit chat

I found you in late 2015, maybe early 2016. I was on a diet and randomly came across a video where you were doing vegan cheese maybe? then shortly after you stopped and ive been on the train ever since. Have always found you to keep it real and are really funny. I also agree with a lot of your viewpoints :).

God this video was really enlightening, I’m really sorry you feel so stuck. I would watch you regardless and honestly this was so nice to see in between all the craziness. I’m new to patreon but I used to get on your you now; I love your real personality. You’re so down to earth. First video I found was with Candy at Heart Attack Grill, then I went back and watched every other one of your videos and I’ve been watching every day since.

I found you by looking for TGIF Fridays restaurant reviews 😀. I just loved your personality and topics your were speaking on.

I found you from Drama alert. And been hooked ever since.. I never even heard the word mukbang before.

You are a very intelligent person Nick. And I understand the fact that you need to keep millions of people entertained. And need to post what sells. But I’ll always watch you no matter what you eat.

I love you nik, if your ready to stop I support you. I'll watch you do whatever honestly. It would be fun to watch like calorie counting weight loss work out healthy vids if you start doing those

Girlllll it’s time to take a step back.... for your mental health sake... I’m telling you. Please take care of yourself ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Very new to you, found you on Reddit back in late October of 2020 . I would support you if you shifted your focus, I firmly believe you need to be happy, and people will enjoy what you choose to do if you are happy doing it.

You have some things that you can do when you are done mukbangs. You have a beautiful voice and can do podcasts. You are famous enough to go on reality tv. You could write that book that you have wanted to write for the last decade. You could also record your weight loss journey. You are creative and have the work ethic to do many things. Don't give up on your dreams 🙂

Nik I don’t remember the exact month but I’ve been watching you for a few years now. I do know this: there are a ton of mukbangers out there but none as popular as you. Why? It’s your personality and charm that they love. The food is just part of what you do but it’s not all of who you are. People already love you and that’s not going to stop just because you change what kind of foods you are eating on camera. Your charisma is what has drawn people in so I believe you are short changing yourself by thinking if you go healthy that you will lose viewers. I really don’t think that will be the case. You definitely need to take a step back and just breathe even for a few days or a week and just really evaluate everything and let yourself relax. You’ll be surprised how clear things will become once you can breathe for a minute. ❤️😊❤️

Two years ago on Christmas Day, my daughter introduced me to mukbangs with videos of Tricia Paytas. I started searching on my own and found you a week or so after. I have been enjoying your creativity for 2 years. I have watched almost all your videos that I could find. Thanks for all you have done. You definitely deserve a break. You have crammed 10 years work into 4 years. I wish you all the best.

I remember watching this skinny dude eating noodles and feeding his parrot. This was when i had no idea what a vegan or mukbang was

Oh also I haven’t been a viewer for very long, maybe six months or so? I know I’ve been living under a rock lol but I just liked watching various mukbangers to relax and I came across you. It wasn’t the food for me really, but your antics and humor and personality that made me a fan!

I really feel for you. I can’t imagine how burnt out you must be in every way. I think I speak for a lot of people though that just you hanging out and talking, or doing a skit or something funny when you’re inspired, would be just as entertaining as the loads and loads of food. If you want to eat on camera, having healthy food and just normal sized portions wouldn’t dissuade people if you were still you, you know? I’m sure there are people watching ONLY for food but if you’re not feeling good anymore, it’s just not worth it to keep those people happy while you’re feeling like shit mentally and physically. And trust me, if you lessen the load and only post a few times a week, I don’t think anyone would blame you. I don’t know how you do it! So that’s my two cents if it means anything. Love you and please take care!

🇬🇧 I’ve watched every video right to the end, since I first watched you in Sep 18. And today was my first time on Patreon. I love your work Nik...chin up...speaking of which have you noticed that Lady Gaga has the same chin as you and she is skinny! 😂😛 x It’s so weird hearing you swear, you curse more than I do!

Oh Nik..... I can totally understand your dilemma. It's painful to know that you are struggling and worrying so much. At the same time I value your ability to reflect and I'm proud of you for wanting to take care of yourself. I want to encourage your plans for the future! It sounds like you have very good ideas (cutting down the amount of videos, more healthy days) until you reach 30. I believe you have the power to get through this. It will work out, Nik! Just do what you need to do and take care. (The first video I've seen of you was in Aug/Sep 2020 and I revisited your channel in November out of curiosity. Been hooked since then.)

Oh Nik, I can tell you are exhausted and really need a change. You have such good work ethic and a perfectionist. You are harder on yourself than anyone. So I know that is part of the reason you are struggling. Pray that the Lord our God will guide you and keep you. Let His will be done. Alot of is will be here to support you. Much blessings Nik!

I found u on my birthday while was in Mexico and the cable was well in Spanish so I watched youtube and fell in love with it Nov 2020

I found you about October or November 2020 I think, you were linked by YouTube to my suggestions because I watch Chelcie Lynn and Libby I think ...you were crying it was your break up video and I was all “oh honey !” because we’ve all been there and I’ve loved you ever since 😊

Have you thought about selling merchandise? You have plenty of catch phrases that are hilarious. And ones that I and a bunch of your supporters would pay to have on a shirt.

I first started watching you in February 2020, you were eating from like 6 different places. From there on I continued watching you because the food looked so good but now I still watch because you’re an amazing and funny person. Always brightens up my day ☺️

I absolutely think you could make it as a voice over person, your voice is amazing....do some scouting Nik to see if you can get spotted to do cartoons or adverts or something , you know we all 💗 you so..hell, as long as you hang out with us we don’t card what the hell you do xxx YouTube is vicious , I don’t know how you handle all that abuse xxx

I don’t remember the exact date but, I know I have been watching you for the past two years for sure! You are a very intelligent man and I have no doubt that you will figure it all out! Love you! 😘

I Found you When my son came home to visit from college and he had met a girl and became vegan, to the point where he wouldn’t even eat honey. So I started doing research because I had taken him to the doctor and he was 20 pounds underweight he was so tired and when I did research I came across your why you were not vegan anymore and you had some very legitimate information, I really enjoy your conversations and you are very intelligent with a great sense of humor. I think people realize that you are intelligent but don’t want to give up the humor and your muckbangs-I have watched you every day sense, and I’m always trying to share info To my 22-year-old son, we/he is now pescatarian instead because I would show him how your teeth were affected or just different things that you had said. But I ended up enjoying all of your stories and Q&A‘s!!! I think that if you did a big turnaround on YouTube and lose the way I think many people would watch you because there are several people on the platform that could do it and haven’t!!! Stephen sushi lost a little bit of weight but it’s not the same as Nick dropping 100 lbs!(btw I can’t say LB’s without hearing Orlin!)I have an auto immune disorder, I have lupus. So Orland should get on this train with you as well and both of you guys losing weight on the channel showing how much better things can get, I think you can make a nice fat coin. Feel better. And we still get to watch you!!!Those are my hopes and been on the side have a Patreon for your music because I enjoy watching you play the violin as well if I could have a Nick change at 30! But please do learn to pace yourself,You will be happy that you did... advice from one of your 40-year-old long time watchers, he remind me of my boy! Hijito Lindo🥰

Nick, I love and appreciate you and I'am so proud of you and all you have done for us. I only discovered you last year when I accidentally came across a video of Trailer Trash Tammy doing a collab with you in her car. I fell in love with your voice and how funny you were. I just knew I had to start following you. I'am only new to Patrion but I love seeing the real you. So thank you Nick 🥰

I found you by falling down the YouTube rabbit hole. Got hungry and wanted to see deep dish pizza that led to a asmr video that led to Chelsea Lynn’s mukbang. Thought she was hilarious and watched more and then saw you on her channel. Thought you were worth checking out and I’ve been watching since March 2020. Please take care of yourself. We’ll understand if you take time off. Shit we do that too lol 😊

I can't remember when I found you! But I have you on in the background all day as I'm working or eating. I just love hearing you talk! I don't care about the food. Do whatever makes you feel good. Get healthy or don't - you do YOU whatever you want for yourself. I'll still be here 😊💙

I’m rolling 😂😂 I be the same way wen I eat

Omg I love tlc I would most deff watch ! They got so many good shows on that channel

I see you got plants back there can you give us a plant tour lol 😂 I’m all In your apartment lol 🥲🥺

Omg I’m so like that with my YouTube. It’s hard for me to think of ideas and what to bring to my channel I just love eating and making people laugh 😆 and just being me but I understand what you mean 😭

Girl you know you can vent to me 🥺 I’m here to listen and chat all you want im here for you mentally not fiscally cause I’m in Philly lol but I’m here for you! If you need someone to talk to or just to listen 👂! But I feel you though it’s fine to talk about okay ! If they don’t like it they can unsubscribe and that’s on period.com lol sorry for all that 😅😂 hopefully I made ya day Nikocado

Hi love, I actually started watching you January of 2020. I was watching Tammy and you 2 collabed and I was hooked ever since. I enjoy and appreciate what you do for all of us. We love you Nik and we are here for you. Maybe something you can try is to make a routine of walking the beach water line and vlog as you do it. This is a good way for you to clear your mind, work your body and talk to us and make us laugh like you always do.

I‘d be more down for you eating healthy food. Even your pumpkin and collard green recipe... watching you cook simple dishes

We love you nick! try exploring different avenues. Have you thought about gaming or podcasts

I've been watching you since I saw you do a mukbang with Tammy. I think it was fried chicken.

I think everyone on Patreon would literally watch you eat a steamed pumpkin and a few avocados, lol. At least cutting out the fast food shit for your videos here could be a good first step in the right direction. 🥑💚

My first Nick video was "Redneck does the fire noodle challenge" with Chelcie Lynn back in Aug 2019. Funny video!! go see if you already haven't :-)

Yeah we will all support whatever you decide. Your mental health is very important

I know it's a tough decision to make and I wish I could give you advice but all I know is that your TRUE supporters will follow you no matter what you do. We just genuinely enjoy your company. I do enjoy your skits and all the funny things you do. It truly makes my day and you're the only one that can make me laugh out loud LITERALLY! Love you!!!!

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I first heard of you from the Timmy Tomato channel, when he was doing a Q&A and one of the questions was about you, which I don't watch him anymore. Wasnt really into Mukbanks (Tammy, lol), but was really entertained by your craziness. Haha You're really the only YouTuber I watch. You're a stress relief in my day. You take my mind off my hard times that I'm going through with my sick mother. Thank you.

I used to watch some Korean mukbangs when everything here shut down in March. but happened upon your channel one day. I found it funny so I searched more of your Stuff. It is very entertaining. I guess at one time I was intrigued at how much food these tiny little people could consume...but it got old. I like that you talk to your audience (sometimes yell 🤣). But I really like when you speak to us in Patreon. You become a real person with real emotions. Don’t be so hard on yourself! Your awesome! And definitely do not think you are letting anyone down by taking time for yourself. People will get over it and find you when you post something new. Why? Because they like you. Get some rest and worry about yourself first! Think of your time off as a way to refresh your thoughts. If you do take some time. I know I’ll be here when you return ❤️

Thank you for the support you guys. I really need to make some changes because I'm feeling sad right now.

Did you know that making a date You're going to start something is a literal cliche joke that people in AA say, its always starting on another specific day... then no it can't be that day because ____ so it will be this next date. Lol

The people that think alot of you, wouldn't stop watching you if you had days off , you should take time for you, and like other people have said, alot of us don't watch for just for the food ❤️

DO NEW MERCH!!! Don't look at me lady, I'm gaining weight and I don't know why, have both been suggested alot.

I actually found you 4 years ago this month. You were doing a collab with Wendys Eating show and eating at El Pollo Loco. You were so happy and you had so much fun and that smile, OMG!! That smile did it for me ☺️. Didn’t care about the food at all lol. That was until I first saw you eating fettuccine alfredo. My favourite. 😋❤️😘❤️ PS I especially liked the little vlog at the end. It was nice seeing you both outside at the market place.

Its also a difficult job because it requires 100% self discipline especially for a daily channel. You're not at work having someone watching and motivating you to complete your work, you have to motivate yourself. That's not easy every single day with no breaks.

I can't remember first time I saw u but it's been about a year now ..I love you guys ..I understand ur frustration. Wish I could say something to help ..

I know my opinion is the minority of ppl who watch the channel, but I don't even go to your channel for the food, I go to be entertained by your personality and skits. Yes, you MAY lose some subscribers if you changed up your content away from fast food or eating in general BUT you would then gain new subscribers who want to see the drama and skits, ppl who want more of the entertainment side over the eating side. Def don't sell the channel and start over that is a bad idea but changing the content, i think it could work better than you think. You have to trust the process, you can always go back to eating fast food if it didnt work after a while. Sending my love, I hope you find what is right for you ❤ I found your channel years ago when you were filming with mr noodle and werent even in America yet, I don't remember the video :)

The first vid I saw you in was a couple years ago I think, it was a Chinese buffet vid . We used to watch strictly dumpling and other food channels and stumbled across the legend that is you! 😘

Your dilemma about what to do with your channels is real. It seems like you are so busy keeping them all running that you don't have a chance to step back and think about how to make a change that will improve your life. Please don't spend your days being miserable with the hope that you will be happy/successful in the future. You are a smart and savvy person, I know you will figure it out. ❤️

I’ve always said I don’t think people watch for the quantity of food. We just watch for the talk and fun. One hamburger and fries is good for me! Or even nothing.

Music is the best medicine-always makes me feel way better 🕺🏻🎧🎤🎻

I wish I could say don't stress about it, but it's your job, I get it. Your friends here totally understand.

I'm sorry about that! It looks like you need some "me" time! You should try maybe meditation or yoga: they both play miracles on my mood swings. Unfortunately, I know what being depressed means. I hope you get better soon,Nick! Take care 💕P.S. I actually found you recently, in November. I used to watch a lot of Korean videos in the past: recently I came back to my old habit. While watching Korean videos about cooking miniatures I came across the tag "mukbangs" and by clicking on that I could find your amazing videos!

Oh, what about having 1 day in your mukbang schedule to do like Healthy Sunday and just do fruits, greens and other healthy food you love while doing a storytime or something! Love you lots!

Take a day off and take care of yourself. Watching since 7/20

Noodles make everything better ❤️ but seriously cant wait till you slow down a little and replace that time with life. A healthier life because I know that is what you want and a life where you and Orlin can spend alot more quality time. Anything you decide to do is always ok with me ❤️🌺❤️🌺❤️🌺❤️
