>stopped smoking a pack of cigs a day>stopped smoking 2g of weed daily>no longer eating junk food, reduced daily calories intake from 3500+ to 2200 (stopped eating chips, chocolates, pizzas etc, now mostly eating rice chicken veggies eggs etc)>cant stop drinking 2 monster sugar energy drinks per dayi dont even drink cola etc, i just have this terrible urge to drink 2 punch monsters every single day.. its not like its a matter of will, it wasnt easy to stop smoking weed, cigs and eating all that junk food, wtf is wrong with me
>>76776199sugar addiction and caffeine dependency, two weeks without sugary stuff will stop the cravings switch to pills or coffee for the caffeine

>>76776199sugar is as addictive as heroin.

>>76776420t. sugar addict
>>76776199Get addicted to one of the ultras. Personally can’t go a day without a peachy keen
>>76776199lemme guess, your mood improved 3xi want to get there anon, good job
>>76776497yaa im on another level now but life is now kinda pain because i got hope again but im already 35 so the combination of hope and running out of time hit my feels every day... still better then the nothingness of the past
>>76776497what do u need to change?
>>76776554>running out of time hit my feels every dayyou are not even halfway through mate. my grandpa is 84 and he lives on cheese crackers and bitters and he is fine. don't give up.
>>76776199i had replaced most of my sugar cravings with berries for a while, limiting stuff like cookies to roughly once a week. worked out well as long as i wasnt under too much stress. remember bad sleep makes your cravings worse too
>>76776199sort of the same with me but I am on a zero sugar coke sort of thing. Idk if I need to stop because it has like nothing in it but it also is a sweet thing my brain craves.
>>76776199You've made amazing progress. You don't have a ton of junk going into your body, which is more that can be said for a ton of people, probably 90% of people. Don't be so hard on yourself. Two monster energy drinks a day is well below the threshold for caffeine, and the sugar isn't going to hurt you very much if you're active. That being said, trying to cut down on sugar is a good goal. Why don't you try watering them down with some MIO fruit punch flavored drops? Slowly wean yourself off the sugar while retaining the flavor. Anyway, I wish you the best of luck, man. I'm proud of you for how far you've come and the fact that even after you've exerted that much willpower, you still have the mindset that you can and should be improving.
>>76776199>stopped smoking a pack of cigs a day>cant stop drinking 2 monster sugar energy drinks per dayWhat's the point of caffeine without cigs?Unless you meant that you reduced them, then quit smoking.
>>76776199>don't buy monster>now when you want to drink it there's no monsterIt's that easy
>>76778018thank you very much for your nice response, im just having some flashbacks from when i was studying university while doing 3x 12 hour shift on weekend and my psychotherapist told me thats its okay to smoke weed after work and when i have some time, cause i already put in a lot of work (she was a liberal hoe)... which ultimately lead to me not caring about much else and i slowly deteriorated, smoke more and more while giving less shit about real life... i have similiar very bad feeling about these energy drinks, i think they are bad for your heart in a way we dont know yet and the sugar alone is killing a lot of my progress
>>76778622I'm sorry to hear about your experience with that psychotherapist. It seems like she was quite the enabler. It's very unfortunate that these types of people are around and giving people guidance in their life. I'm glad, though, that you were able to depart from that and to see the negativity in what she was promoting. It really shows the quantity and quality of your inner self-reflection and your ability to be headstrong and self-improve even in tough situations. I hope you get to your goal of being able to moderate your substance intake. God bless.
>>76776199Pls share your weight op, with a lifestyle like that I cannot imagine anything other than you being a freak.
>>76779335115kg, 203 cm
>>76779373Why are you speedrunning your life? Surely you have some family or friends that you care about.
>>76779469what do u mean by speedrunning life?
>>76779474Your lifestyle combined with your stats makes me think your heart is working double shift.
>>76779478i guess its true that very tall people have problems with heart when they get older etc, which is why i wanna stop energy drinks.. but i feel pretty healthy rn
>>76776199I had the same thing but with monster zero shit and sugar free Red Bulls. After I read a story how a guy had a whole in his stomach caused by acid from these drinks I stopped drinking them for good. Besides, black Monster drinks, even the blue sugar free one taste like ass.
>>76776205you like the flavour of red 40 it takes a while, but a year or two off it will make it taste bad>t. likes the taste of red 40
>>76776205pacific punch is so bad though, mango loco is betterI was addicted to it like 2 years ago and I'm currently addicted to it again, it's terrible
>>76779950>>76779928I legitimately can't believe people struggle with liquid sugar addiction. Then again I do understand what it's like to crave a pizza and I act on those cravings way too often
>>76780186>>76779928it could be that its basically the last bad thing im doing, all the other vices have been taken from me
>>76780186I mean the cravings are manageable after a few weeks, but it takes a few years to not have any anymore>>76780267I had the same problem with the exact same monster, other energy drinks with no colours didn't do it for me and I was also addicted to weed and booze at the time. I quit monster first, but it was rough.
>>76776199My gramps died at 93. The guy drank almost every day, smoked, ate a shitload of ice cream, put sugar in his beer, ate kebab every week, and so on. When we went through his stuff after he died, he even had a bunch of viagra and coke under his bed. Docs were always telling him he'd fuck his liver and kidneys up, but his heart gave in and he died peacefully watching netflix. He was still doing push ups at that age too.I 100% believe the deciding factor in how long and well you'll live are your genes.
>>76780267This. I train hard, eat right, don't drink alcohol or do any drugs but I literally will get up at 6am every day to run down to the gas station and buy Pipeline Punch.
>can't stop eating greek yogurt (I buy one like twice every week)>can't stop eating cookies (I'm eating that shit 2-3 times/week)Help me, bros.
>>76780186after you've had a nice meal, nothing hits the spot more than an ice cold red bull. It's orgasmic, especially if I haven't had a can in a couple of days
>>76780563That actually sounds revolting
>>76780692u dont dissolve your meals with a healthy dose of acid? ngmi
