If you are trying to quit alcohol right now, I salute you.
>>77411715nobody is joining your sober rave please stfu and grow up
It is pretty easy, havent drank in weeks. Maybe 2 beers the entire summer. It's easy as long as you DON'T hang out with alcoholics.
>>77411715i had months ober but i drank for my birthday and im going to drink through the weekend then get back on the wagon
>>77411715i saw my ex yesterday we locked eyes im fucked up again and im afraid of going on another weeks long bender. I think I'll drink after gym today
>>77411715How am I supposed to bulk without alcohol? If I'm on a diet I just change it from chicken and candy to grilled meat.
>>77411809>bulking on fermented sugars containing zero real nutritional value and reduces your testosterone and dehydrates youGet real son.
>>77411811I think that drinking and not eating is what fucks you up. Since a lot of people will try to save their sinking ship by not eating or alcoholics are usually just using the cheapest drug possible.
>>77411715I'm drinking a lunch beer right now. Cheers!
>>77411856It's 6 in the morning
>>77411715>trying to quitIf you have to 'quit' you're an alcohol.I'll drink daily for months at a time because I enjoy it; and 'quit' for months at a time by accident because I'm busy and it doesn't align with my goals.Get your head in the game, man.
>>77411785please roll over and die in your own piss throwup
>>77411869>You're an alcohol
>>77411715I've never had alcohol
Bring reall, if you can’t get big without getting hammered occasionally you’re just a genelet and need to LDAR
>>77411715I'm a former junkie, when I quit hard drugs I moved to alcohol.I'm now 32 days sober.Already seeing massive improvements on my overall health.
>>77411715Two years sober this month, best desicion I've ever made.>Gyno completelly gone>No more depression>Money gainz>Grey hair stopped appearing>Face got slimmer
>>77411860And I'm having a breakfast iced black coffee and vodka. It's called reading a book.
>>77411878>Randy... I am the liquor
>>77411883The more you get drunk the exponentially worse it is for you
>>77411908>I'm a former junkieOpinion into trash
>>77411794one of the many problems with the world is self-absorption. People do not see beyond there own world experience and project it on to all others. Take this typical response. This person finds it easy, therefore everyone should. That is simply not a true statement. However, I do notice this board is full of self important opinionated wankers, so it seems futile to point it out. But I did anyway.
>>77412077I agree with the guy. Being addicted to alcohol is just wanting to die with extra steps. Alcohol makes you feel awful physically, it makes you pukey and nauseous, you wake up the day after willing to die. Only a demented fuck would go through this everyday. I get being addicted to weed because weed is not turning into a fat ass that shits blood and vomits every morning, it doesn't destroy your liver, so there is a higher chance of addiction
>>77412077we live in a retarded era. the fitness and health sphere is particularly retarded. hence shills like bryan johnson being so popular, they play to this skepticism and navel gazing. not surprising.
>>77412091well you're yet another retard then who has really no idea or education on what alcoholism and drug addiction is really all about. And you're weed point is so moronic it's actually lowered my IQ.
>>77411715>I haven't had a drink of alcohol for 2 days<everybody claps> <you're so brave>
>>77412077boo hoo you didn't have a dad growing up and had a hard time as a teenager? life too hard? i think you just lack disciprine. put the bottle down you idiot.
Hey guys, I’m on day 18.>why did you stop drinking 1. Im not the happiest person right now when i drink i express that to the world. I’ve lost numerous friends in the last year due to my horrendous attitude while drunk 2. Calorie restriction, and recovery from training. I find even slight amounts of alcohol reduce drive to train with sleepiness etc and poor sleep. Without alcohol I am energized through the day I am 32 years old, I have lost 8 lbs since I’ve made these lifestyle changes Wish me luck please /fit/ I don’t want to be that person any more I was truly despicable >pic rel is my activity output since I quit I did pick up a smoking habit to helpMe around other drinkers, but I don’t mind for now
>>77412077/fit/ is one of the lowest IQ boards on the chon, it's to be expected
haven't had a drink since the 4th. i knew my time was up with how shit i've let my life get over the last two years, drinking was just one part of that. i've already lost quite a bit of weight in just these three weeks so i'm not missing it at all and just enjoying spending the rest of this year getting back to a decent base line of health and fitness.
>>77412077True, yet your comment thought to conclusion would mean everyone’s experience is unique aka everyone is „special“. Which in many cases simply isn’t true. Most people can stop drinking if they want to. Now they may choose not to or find it too hard, but the ability is there if the conviction is there. Same goes for losing weight.
>>77412077Sorry for having an ounce of discipline, lmao. Just don't drink, same as not gorging on chocolate, it's YOUR choice. NGMI.
>>774117151y on august 1st (i'm actually probably at 1y already but didn't track the exact date i stopped)
>>77412754This is like hearing "some dogs are black" and saying "this comment thought to conclusion would mean all dogs are black." The truth is somewhere in the middle; ironically the point of the post you're criticizing is exactly this sort of nuance is missed these days.
>>77412754>True, yet your comment thought to conclusion would mean everyone’s experience is unique aka everyone is „special“.No, it means people can have different experiences, that's all. Some people share said experiences, some don't. Different does not mean special.
>>77412754>losing weight is equivalent to alcoholism
>>77411715i quit about 6 weeks ago. you need a reason to be sober. if you are just waiting to die then you'll never quit.
>>77411715Alcohol is too expensive to ever get addicted to
Its extremely hard to live in Argentina/france and not order a glass of wine with dinner or lunch
>>77413144Homemade alcohol is cheap.
>>77413144I stopped drinking frequently when I was trying to save my money but then I learned you can just steal.after getting dangerously drunk for days several times I decided to just pay for alcohol like a normal person. by some miracle I didn't get fired during that time
>>77411715Ill stop tomorrow
you don't have to try to not drink, you control what goes in your mouth. I have had a lot of stupid drunks in my life, but now they've all fucked off to make other stupid decisions like continuously falling off the wagon. That's reason enough to not touch a bottle ever again.
>>77413278I’m only on day 19 but it doesn’t feel hard because I chose not to drink myself It’s something I actively don’t want to do I still get urges, but it’s not like I’m not drinking for other people, I’m doing it for me So it’s easier
>>77411715I drank two weeks ago and felt like shit for days, I don’t know how it’s even possible to get addicted to this shit
>>77413291the urges lessen, but sometimes the mind wants to slip and sabotage with some "oh it'd be so easy to get one drink in" that spirals back into more again. The key is remembering it passes quicker than another night and morning of regret. Another helpful bit is not being around enablers with their own habits they'd feel guilty about nursing if they see you abstaining.
Pretty sure most of the GLP1s will cause you to lose interest in drinking, I know it did for me.
>>77413337Sometimes I just want to have one beer and I think if I keep it to just that it’ll be okBut I don’t want to ruin my streak
>>77411715I'm not saying alcohol is good, but if it was that bad, how come muslims mostly still all look like skinnyfat shits ?
>>77413535you are literally retarded
>>77411803bro do u got her nudes
>>77411715I'm trying to drink more, but I have responsibilities.
LET'S GET TURNT
I'm a year sober as of yesterday. Been pretty easy but then I was only a weekly binge drinker never a 'vodka on my cornflakes' kind of alcoholic.The real struggle is the fomo on a Friday and Saturday evening. I can hear people having fun drinking in beer gardens and I feel a strong urge to go get blasted but it has weakened considerably as the months have passed.It really is just figuring out what to replace it with. When your whole social/relaxation go-to is alcohol you can feel pretty fucking bored, pent up and adrift without it.I've been doing lots of walking which helps, but I haven't found a good way to blow off steam yet.Anyway, see if it lasts another year.
>>77413600Do you masturbate to porn a lot?
>>77411803As i was getting inside the gym my ex appeared right in FRONT of my face. It was very weird, i know she still wants me but it's been 3 years and she is dating a manlet now from the gym. Kinda sad to see because 3 years she told me 'Why would you leave me? Would you be ok seeing me with someone else?' I tried to play it off like nothing happening but i bothered me and i had the most hardcore leg day of the year. Life is pain brothers
>>77413603Historically, yes. Trying to cut that out too. Also smoker then heavy vaper for years but I'm 4+ months clear from that too.Maybe if I can stay off porn my brain will reset itself over time and I'll find more pleasure in things.
>>77413608Do you have her titty pics
>>77411715QUITTING’S FOR PUSSIES. … but im cutting so yeah no more booze for me for a while at least
>>77413613>>77413578fuck off you jeet manlet browncel
>>77413618Do not disrespect me.
>>77413608I mean its only been like 5 months since we broke up. She was with her new disgusting fatlard boyfriend. I was with friends and they got flabberghasted at his ugliness. Rebounds are meant to be that way yes but idk. I felt shattered lol, her eyes spewed hate so did mine despite still loving her. I guess my body recognized her as a threat since she literally raped me mentally and I couldn't function for a month.So fucked up man. I mean im actively fucking someone else but good god it does hurt. The girl im fucking has feelings for me but I have zero feelings towards her which further complicates the situation. She looked so gorgeous, my ex. Still miss her lots. I hit an ungodly full body session yesterday. Just remember the quintessential truth. what does not destroy you makes you stronger. Stay away from bpdemons though, they FUCK you up. I have lived through some difficult shit including the most destructive earthquake in like centuries of my country. I shrugged it all of, but this battle does not care about your will. Sorry for the wallpost, wanted to vent before getting fucked up at a park
>>77413618stop giving (you)s to the jeet
>>77413644I mean my only comfort was that I mogged her new bf and that I was wearing tight clothing which makes my arms look the way they are. And she worshipped my arms. If I know her and her conditon. shes confused now. But that could be cope idk. Either way it doesn't change anything since if I ever get back together with her, which I want more than everything in the world, my friends told me that they'd beat me up to a pulp due to the shit she put me through
>>77413644>She was with her new disgusting fatlard boyfriendWas he taller than you tho? That's all the matters desu. >The girl im fucking has feelings for me but I have zero feelings towards her which further complicates the situation.Remember to rest before going into your next set so the next set doesn't suffer.> Stay away from bpdemons though, they FUCK you upSo basically every woman, including your mother and my mother and our sisters. Women are dangerous
>>77413644tl;dr post her tits man
>>77413650>Was he taller than you tho? That's all the matters desu.yes but I really doubt that its about that. I know her, and AFAIK hes a big simp who does everything she says. Basically dog-like. I've always been wolf-like or cat-like so to speak in our relationship, which was the reason for our breakup anyway. That I wasn't a dog, that I was truthful instead of saying comforting lies>Women are dangerousYep, and I wouldn't have them any other way lol. My whole life revolves around danger
>>77413644>>77413649it’s tough man but just keep turning that spite and anger into workouts and diet adherence and soon you’ll be dangerously mogging everybody. drop the scowl too. NOTHING and i mean fucking NOTHING kills a bpdemon / failed normalfag that HAPPYMOODMAXXING. even if your mind and your brain are coated in a fog of anger or self hate, project aloof happiness. i’ll just feel bad for the rebound bf. he’s gonna have to deal with her melt down over you she’ll most definitely have when they get home next time HEHEHEHEHEH
>>77413661She knew that I was devastated and she just laughed as per our mutual friend. she even had our mutual friend block me. but yeah, I held my chest high when I saw her and Im visibly more muscular than the time we last saw each other. She has no means of getting knowledge about me but thats like about it. At least im functional, I'll instruct rock climbing to newfags this sunday which'll put me in a good mood again I guess. Thanks for the advice friend
>>77413666trips of TRVTH

>>77413701what the fuck are you talking about anon? do you really think that alcohol is the only variable here? im not even muslim i was just pointing out your retardation since you only corrolate being skinnyfat with alcohol. I drink tons of beer yet i ain't skinnyfat
>>77413707mhm.
>>77413595lol what's with the crackhead in the background
So what are you going to do when all the pretty girls and young lads are out at the bar tonight >drinking>meeting gfs>having fun Somewhere, a girl who hardly drinks is being dragged to the bar by her friends and doesn’t want to be there But because we are in this thread, our chances of meeting her are 0.00I’ll be walking alone tonight to keep my mind off the girls I can’t meet because I can’t go to bars anymore
>>77411715I drink to get tired faster and to wind down, if anything the one with an unhealthy "fixation" to speak of is you.
I drank 6 beers and im drunk as shit for some reason. normally I need 8 beers to feel this way. grief makes you drunker I guess. If you really do have a problem quit. If not. reduce.
>>77414270Alcoholic fucking loserYou smell like shit and look like it too
>>77414279t. liverlet
>>77414307Enjoy cirrhosis
>>77414310I will if I ever get it, which is doubtful due to my pristine alcohol genetics. I don't drink that much other months anyway.
>>77414227You’re talking about a scenario from 20 years ago, anon. Women do not go to bars, and when they do, it’s in large groups to touristy spots. Unless you live in a university town south of the Mason Dixon, that is an anachronism.
>>77414279Look at mr clean over here not even 2 beers in and he thinks he's in any condition to drive
Fitness and beer go together like cocaine and sleep. It doesnt work and its counterproductive. Beer is chock full of phytoestrogens and the darker or hoppier beer you get the bigger your tits will get.
>>77414368The average person in a study is already half dead
>>77414368>100-150lbs for the median>tests drinking a 6pack >to me that is like 2.4 beers in the same time since I have such a higher metabolism of alcohol and muscle not even factoring a negligible tolerance>already shit diet and weak immune system>doesn't sleep well every day and doesn't know to replenish vitamins around drinking >dehydrating and nutrition
>>77414270Idk how you even get drunk on beers. Technically 2 at 10% is 6oz of liquor but it is just too much bloat to get drunk and it's the end of a 6pack and you've been sober all night just sick and your macros suck.
>>77414376Obvs I’m not paying for a singular article to prove someone on 4chan wrong, but I’m very certain that these studies were also being done with whisky.
>>77411715What about the fact I never drink alcohol in the first place?It's easy for me; I don't like the flavor of beer (or 99% of all alcoholic beverages) and I hate carbonated drinks.Do I get praise?
>>77413644>bpdemonsBlood-pressure demons? What?
>>77411715>Be me>37, Male>Been drinking at least 8 drinks a night since my mid 20s.>Kind of out of shape, but gf loves me>Buy generic Cialis online to make wedding night extra fun> Can't mix 8-10 beers a night with boner pills.> Try having just 3 drinks one night, just to see> Realize I'm more addicted to the ritual and the calm it brings me, not the alcohol itself.> Take first dose of boner pills, no alcohol. >Feelsgoodman.jpg> Waking up feeling great> Feeling less bloated> Less stressed and overall "comfy" thanks to lower blood pressure I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of me. Drinking a few Busch non alcoholic beers every night is helping a lot too. They're only like 60 calories. Hoping to ween myself off of them over the next few weeks since it is pointless to drink them. Still planning having a few drinks for special occasions, but I honestly feel so fucking good I don't see myself ever going back to drinking like I used to.
>>77411881loser
>>77415009Infrequent binge drinking is much healthier.
>>77414841How do you know about the taste of several alcoholic drinks if you never drank alcohol? Why are you lying to us? You blatantly contradict yourself in the same post, are you drunk?
>>77414968I hope that you never learn anon. For me it was worth it. Not everyone has the willpower to tame, or to suppose taming, a bpdemon and then be consumed by her. Bpdemon means borderline personality disorder demon.
>>77415473I tame my with betablockers.
>>77411785Sober rave groups are full of the cringest cunts about. All self righteous cause they're off drugs but putting themselves on to everyone else about their using. Its bullshit
Three months sober. Fvck alcolol.
>>77415612Congratulations bro, keep going. I was doing longer and longer breaks and felt like shit every time I wanted a "great wine," le "Trappist beer" or "decent whisky." The juice ain't worth the squeeze. Alcohol is only ok if you're so used to it due to drinking it regularly that the shitty effects on your body are masked due to adaption. If you ever drank a couple of glasses after a multi-month break and the poison hits you straight, you know what I'm talking about.
>>77411715I'm trying to maintain a buzz and only reminded me to drink
>There are genuinely people on this board right this SECOND that suckle on the teet of the liquid jew
>>77415649You do you, don't forget to shake, rattle and roll every time you're not able to get a drink. Be a good citizen, don't get arrested, or you will be a shaking and sweating mess in a hostile environment.
>>77415675I am over 200lbs I can drink every day a lot and not have withdrawals
>>77415677I'm tall as fuck and 215 pounds, but I wouldn't want to put that to the teat anymore. Once you're over forty, the cost benefit analysis of alcohol drastically changes. If you're young and healthy, have fun I guess. Don't be one of those guys who drinks all the fucking time, at least only drink in the evening and don't drink every day, or you will really get the shakes.
>>77411715Why should l start alcohol?
>>77413595>"Crackheads could be here," he thought>"I hate crackheads."
>>77415405I turned 21 seventeen years ago.I tried "shot" sizes of every liquor, I bought the smallest can of a few different beer flavors, I bought two bottles of wine.I then tried them.I came to the conclusion that alcoholic beverages● Cost more money● Have zero nutritional value● Don't taste good● Lead to addictions and bad behavior● Was not worth meAnd I've never regret my conclusions.>YOU SAID YOU NEVER TRIED! NEVER!>YOU LIED!Ok.
>>77416136But you drank them, is what you're trying to say and you don't like them, right?
almost 1k days sober bros
>>77416165congrats you should celebrate with a blue ribbon pabst
>>77411715Alcohol makes you more retarded and fatter. Going beyond 2 drinks is pointless.
>>77412077There is a lot of narciccists and temporarily embarrassed billionaires on this retarded website
>>77411715I quit last year after my gf found me deep in a black out goon session with AI I knew it was getting too degen
Just managed four days of sobriety because my doctor wanted me to do a blood test. Everything came back normal, might be a good time to just quit while I'm ahead.
reminder your sobriety doesnt mean shit until you hit 1 year
>>77411715eventually you drink yourself to death or become allergic to it and it is no longer an issuealcohols buzz isn't worth 1.5 hours of buzz for 2 days of awful sleep and agony
>>77411715Im drinking rn
>>77416756WHAT A LIFE
I don't even get a euphoric buzz anymore so I stopped. it just makes me tired and i cant focus on anything. wish I could go back to college and feel euphoric again getting yucky.
Had 3-5 shots of vodka every night for 6 months. Stopped cold turkey, stupidly, because I didn't know about withdrawals. A few days later I started getting panic attacks and this lasted about 8 months. Don't do what I did. Only drink socially and on occasion.
You guys wanna end up like onlyusemeblade ?Keep drinking the yaeger
>>77411834t.retard alert
>>77412091>Being addicted to weed doesn't make you fatYeah it makes you dyel
>>77411923The weight loss alone is worth it. Beer unfortunately pairs too well with pizza and chicken wings.
>>77418259And money gains.
>>77416609jocks are all republicans sorry tranny
>>77411715I'm about 40 days sober now and I'm fighting the urge really hard right now. Eating helps to fight the cravings.
>>77411715I worry a lot about alcoholism since it runs in my family. I'm 24 and currently get drunk on 7-8 beers with my boys probably 4-5 times a month. And I have a beer or two if I go out to dinner. My dad was getting plastered alone on liquor nightly starting at 15 so I'm in better shape than he was. Still, I think and worry a lot about it slowly escalating and drinking alone as I get older. I have lots of family and friends who would almost certainly try to intervene before that point. I actually drink less with my friends compared to a few years ago (killing a 12pk by myself). Any uncs who lived this already?
>>77420606I drink alone all the time, but I usually stop at 3 or 4 beers. Having some beerskis while watching or playing dumb shit is nice
>>77420680I really try to not drink alone because it's a little too fun. Got drunk alone a few months ago and watched the Spongebob movie and cried when they died in Shell City. Also watched GlenGarry Glen Ross that night
>>77416814> kinda same, I rly like to drink some whiskey, but after like initial glass or two. the good feeling stops and then u re just kinda normal and meh.. The good feeling doesnt linger. So now I stopped for a while too.
>>77413141>if you are just waiting to dieI don't want to be drunk/hungover while waiting to die.
>>77411715As someone who hasn’t drank since 2024. It’s not that hard, just don’t drink. Duh, if it’s hard go to AA or something.I stopped because there are no health benefits.
Having a glass of pinot nero at this very moment and frequent me a beer and cigarette or two. I've sworn off the stronger stuff and have no desire for it but I see no point in missing out on the finer things in life.
>>77420606i lived that and like you had a family history of wicked alcoholism on the dad's side, and yeah i cracked and became an under-employed alchie drinking 10-15 a day every day starting around age 21. not to say it will happen to you too. my thing was i had a tragic/disrupting life event that i used as an excuse to really push the drinking, start drinking solo, etc., and once that happens and you have the genetic predilection, the wheels fall all the way off, rapidly. i'm 31 now and a year sober, but fug i wasted so much of my youth drinking
>>77411715I'm not quitting entirely, but I have scaled back significantly. I used to binge drink a lot in my military days and that carried over to my civilian life. Now I have a few glasses a fortnight at the most.As always, everything in moderation.
Guys my dad is 67 or 68 and he religiously has two per day and on Saturday’s he’s wasted during golf I saw him shirtless the other day, he looked a bit frail (he plays pickleball every morning at least) but one thing stood outHis hardened gut. And he’s not fat, it was a hardened gut of seemingly visceral fatI’m just worried. About my dad Thanks for reading
>>77420693I think it's fine as long as you aren't getting drunk drunk. Catching a buzz by yourself and enjoying a movie or some music is nice
>>77411715Why does the government hide the cure from the goyim?
just hit 33 months sober and turned 30 recentlyabsolutely wasted my 20s chasing the fomo of social gatherings and "getting out to have fun" until it turned into being alone (after college) then drinking alone to numb everything. it will turn you completely retarded until you forget everything that you might have wanted to begin withif you let itif you're reading this and still struggling to get through a monday evening sober. you won't feel better tomorrow, a week later, shit months later, but it will get better anon. SOOO much fucking better. I wanted to join the 27 club but I am glad I'm here
>>77420880because the caveats here are actually completely validt. guy who did plenty of acid and shrooms whilst being a drunk
>>77420880psychedelics only genuinely help a very very small percentage of people in the long term. Ask anyone you know who does them if they had some "life changing" event on drugs. They'll say yes but did they really change past a few weeks (if that)? And it always has the potential to one-shot people due to factors both within and outside their control (cultivated ego vs genetic disposition to mental illness). People will bend over backwards to convince everyone (and themselves) that they are doing anything other than just getting high for fun. We already went over this shit with the Redditors and weed in 2013
>>77420880That seems less like a cure and more like a super-conditional realignment of previously-held sensibilities. There are many ways to reach that and psychedelics have more potential drawbacks than boons.
>>77416755>alcohols buzz isn't worth 1.5 hours of buzz for 2 days of awful sleep and agonyHow much are you drinking for that buzz?
>>77416136i like how you completely gloss over the one reason anyone ever drinksalcoholic beverages: >make you feel good
>>77421089Not him but 2 cans of beer does me in and I feel like death afterwards for the next two days. It feels like some one sucked my soul out if I try to run the next day. But man do I fucking love the taste of a good beer, non alcoholic just isn't the same.
>>77422774bro wtf do you have asian flush or something? I weigh 130lb and can drink 6 beers easily without being hungover. You just need to drink water and sleep enough. Even with like 10+ I'll be hungover but I can still go to work. I don't even think I have a very high tolerance for my weight
>>77423062not him, but I think he might just be old. The older you get the worse it gets.
