I almost never touch any alcohol. My addiction is Coca-Cola, 4 liters a day is the average :( But no alcohol, no smoking. Except for the Coca-cola I'm completely non-hedonistic, so as it being my only unhealthy habit I kinda close my eyes on the coca-cola abuse...
Christ almighty Gerrit if that figure is real and not a joke you need to stop. Drop a coin in it and watch the dirt corrode. That's your organs. :pQuote:

But as I said, almost never alcohol, never touched a cigarette or any sort of drugs, ... Except for the Coca-Cola I live a healthy life.
I'm vegetarian as well for 17 years now, but that cannot be seen as unhealthy, proven long time ago that you can be just as healthy without meat. And I do eat the vast majority of vegetables, plus meat replacers such as tofu/quorn/soja. Indian food is the best for veggies, the way they're creatives with spices is just incredibly !
Gerrit I am pretty much the same as you. Well except I am a big time carnivore :p I don't drink or smoke but I used to take at least a litre of the black stuff a day. Actually it's a really odd thing when I'm out people won't let me buy a drink for them as I only drink coke and insist on buying for me. :confused: But anyway, my gf's father had a heart attack and they read up a lot on healthy eating and that and they forced me off coke. The amount of sugar in it is horrendus. 4 litres is a desperate amount. It could make you a diabetic. I'd cut that wayyyyyyyyy back. And it will be hard as it is highly addictive with both sugar and caffeine.
:eek: :eek: Gerrit, you'd probably be better off drinking alcohol (safe limits) rather than that amount of coke, Jesus, that's ****ing shocking, excuse my French...Quote:

I watched that film last night 'a face'
Make u boke! Cannot believe they sell fizzy drinks to people in those cartons. They had a McDonalds in a hospital FFS!!!!! :eek:
Hey guys, I've a problem. Entered only the wine section and was rated Ossie Osbourne!! For f..cks sake. :D
Hmmm... Fair play that you are concerned about my health, but be consequent then and also campaign against smoking, their hospital bill comes from your taxes as well. My uncle is a heart and lungs surgeon, and he says if you'd ever see a human lung after years of smoking you would never want to touch a cigarette again. And my addiction may be very bad for the teeth, but I still think it ain't as bad as years of smoking or drinking...
I guess we all have our bad habits when it comes to health.
I am the only one at work that doesn't drink alcohol, which sometimes gets me weird looks when going out with them... I do enjoy a glass of Baileys, but only on very rare occasions, and maximum 1 glass per evening. Beer is not really my thing, despite coming from a beer country and living in another beer country...
As for my vegetarianism: I was ill exactly 2 times in almost 4 years, so I can't be that unhealthy :) I don't feel like I lack anything because of not eating meat, if you hear how animals are put full of hormones in some cases I even think a decent vegetarian eating habit (I try to have as much variation in vegetables as possible) is healthier than eating meat. But then the truth will be somewhere in the middle I guess, as my friends counter me by bringing on the sprays used on vegetables to keep bugs away...
:eek: I am rated as Mother Teresa :eek:
"Pathetic efford ! My grandma parties harder than you do !" :(
and that was with lies included... When asked what you drink when going out there was no non-alcoholic option, and I told I drank 1 glass usually while I normally do not drink a single one with alcohol... So you can guess what a party loser I am if I'd have been able to tell the full truth.
Can I be the first to say I love smoking! :D :confused: :eek:
:eek: It's a horrible habit. The stale smell of smoke on your/someone's clothes hair :eek: Never mind the health aspect. Seeing old relatives when I was young, having to hug and kiss them, scared the sh!t out of me, yellow, smelly mouth, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I promised myself at age 7 I would never smoke after seeing that and realising what caused it.Quote:

Within minutes of the game ending, I'd called over to the shop across the road and bought 20. Yeh, the smell on clothes is awful. I have loads of incence I get from a shop (Sunshinejoy.com) in New Jersey or in Amnesty (Galway) which obscures the odour and I plan to give the fags in June - after the Israel game. :oQuote:

Jesus :eek: :eek: Despite your seniority over us you're still quite young CTID. :eek: Was this due to some defect or is there some advice you can give us whippersnappers to avoid such problems? :(Quote:
