Health What's your vice

[peasantbruh69]

I can't say person/people, I have to say human/humans

This will sound a bit pathetic for an adult but... soft drink.

It's seriously the one thing I can't resist no matter how much I put my mind to it.

Hot day and I'm really thirsty, I just want a massive glass of solo or coke or something.

Seriously have resisted drugs with more success. I just can't do it.

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

Sugar, caffeine, and laziness.
In fact that's not so much a list of vices as a lifestyle description.

 

[Perth gal]

Takeaway food. And going to cafes . I'm seriously addicted. I spend so much on it. I wish I could stop but....

I was going to say alcohol, but it sounds like I'm not that bad off. I don't tend to drink during the week, but do tend to drink more than I need on the weekends. Don't usually have 1-2 pints, it has to be 5-6.

Would have to say junk food and soft drinks. I exercise quite a bit, eat well for main meals; if I didn't eat shit snacks, I would probably have a pretty decent physique. As it is, not fat but not fighting fit.

Also pr0n; if I wasn't married, it would probably be Tinder.

 

[Aussie_boy]

Pretty much everything that's been said. Gambling would be the main one and can't eat healthily to save myself although I do exercise a lot. Also I really cannot motivate myself, always need to go to the gym with someone else etc. and that's probably why my school/uni grades were never as good as they should've been.

 

[Silent Alarm]

I'm a sucker for doing something for two weeks and never doing it again. For a few months in winter I was doing a good 30-45 minutes of pretty high intensity cardio and stuff like that, and since then I've done nothing.

I go through phases where I'm happy to fast and just eat dinner and drink green tea, then a week later I'm back to having two beers every night.

Pot. On a three week holiday in Malaysia atm and don't have the courage to hit up any likely looking dudes, which has meant my first real break (> one week) in twenty years. For some reason my legs ached for the first few nights but all good now so dry your tears.

Fly back to Melbourne on Friday, landing at 1 AM. Planning to bulldoze my way through customs, pick car up from brothers, drive three hours home, kick down front door and spark up my specially pre-rolled spliff.

If you see me driving east at a dollar fifty, don't forget to say hi!

I used to smoke a lot but quit a few years ago. The good thing about having a break off the weed is the first joint afterwards blows your head off!

Coffee. Plain and simple.

 

[Drakescoffeecake]

I was going to say alcohol but I've been pretty good during the week lately - last 10 weekdays I've had 3 beers - it's the weekends where I can't control myself. Coffee is one thing I need daily or I won't function.

 

[Silent Alarm]

I'm pretty happy not to binge at all for the sake of it. In the last six months I've sort of had an epiphany, and I don't feel totally obliged to go out and drink all day and night every single Saturday night. These days I'll only 'binge' if I have the offer of hanging out with a mate; I won't make the effort to hang out simply to have someone to drink piss with. It's a little more about just catching up these days. And like I've always said, how can two blokes in their early 20s hang out in a non-weird way that doesn't include alcohol?

I do think I am one of those people who needs 1-2 beers a night, definitely feel it if I don't. I never get pissed alone though; if I have four I end up feeling pretty bloated and lose the interest.

I have a mate though who really abuses the shit. I don't think he's the sort of guy to have a drink when he comes home as a wind-down (he's one of the only boys I know whose had a 9-5 office job for over a year), but on the weekends he gets pretty ****ing abusive. Some of the shit he's sent on snapchat is pretty confronting, and he's done the sort of stuff most people would wake up and think "jesus, I probably got a bit too pissed last night" but carries on regardless. Ends up getting pretty paralytic and quite often it's the result of drinking a bottle of vodka and four beers by himself. He's pretty good at handling his piss but when you're drinking alone all night Friday and all morning Saturday, does that really matter? It's pretty scary behaviour to me, and I'd rather have 15 beers across Sunday to Monday night alone then see a mate or two a night a week for beers, rather than drinking only one day a week but having about a bottle of whiskey, vodka, and 10 beers to myself by myself.

Of course everyone normalises their own bad behaviour and loves to look at someone else to say "I do it right, they're taking it too far."

Beer and smokes. After work everyday ill have 3-4 longnecks and about a pack of 20 smokes. quit smoking (only early days) and I started a new shift at work so now I finish at 10 30pm.

The amount of money i spent on beer I should have a house by now

 

[Toump Ass]

Pussy & weed

 

[class78]

Start smoking up crystal meth instead, it does away with the hunger, and you won't have any money. You know it makes sense.

 

[phantom13]

Im a pretty fit dude, exercise 5-6 times a week, ride a bike to and from work everyday etc. and I eat healthy Monday-Friday but on weekends my diet is atrocious, without any structure I just eat garbage, fast food, lollies, chocolate at weird times etc.

I'm pretty much the same, I usually don't drink booze during the week, try and eat healthily and exercise but then on weekends I undo all the good work by drinking booze and eating junk food, then wonder why I struggle to lose weight.

I'm very lucky that my metabolism and extreme exercise has thus far allowed me to maintain a pretty good physique, mates that see me Monday to Friday assume im all "my body is a temple" then they see me on the weekend and are all "you should be obese with what you eat".

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Pretty boring, but in terms of diet etc, pasta and a good curry. I eat relatively healthily and these things aren't horrendous on their own, but I really struggle to keep portion sizes and frequency down with them.

Outside of that, I'd probably say video games are my main vice. I enjoy socialising, experiencing things in the real world and such of course but there's just something about video games that I find extremely relaxing and enjoyable. Play more than I should but I love it.

I'm not that lucky, I put on weight quite easily so have to exercise to keep it off, I know some blokes that do bugger all exercise but never put on weight.

 

[craigos]

I would say alcohol. Not that I would ever become a fully fledged alcoholic (or I'd like to think so) but I reckon if it wasn't for trying to keep in shape I could sit outside over most nights in summer and polish off a 6 pack whilst reading with no feelings of guilt whatsoever.

Holidays overseas are dangerous; that's when daily drinks and breakfast beers can become a thing.

 

[Silent Alarm]

Yeah, portion size for me is an issue. It's so easy to be a slave to your hunger and just over-indulge. I think the worst thing I cook would be pasta (generally with chicken, sometimes with seafood or just tuna) and probably having stir-frys be too heavy in the salt department, but I'm also a real bitch and I'll grab a packet of Doritos at work instead of pushing through another two hours and having something better at work. But I like the satisfaction of cooking, I like having a beer while cooking, and I like polishing off a few plates of something when I've finished cooking.

I reckon the biggest issue for me chucking on a bit of weight in the last 18 months, was me previously going shopping and buy $60 worth of food and basically eating half of it in the first two days. After being hungry for two days I couldn't help just tasting all this shit I'd bought.
