I reckon your liver is better off. Plus, that makes the alcohol more enjoyable. Drinking it is more of a special occasion than routine occurrence.
Yes I agree. Itās funny though how society has become so conditioned to drinking all the time. When you say to someone you arenāt drinking there response is usually āare you OKā or ādonāt be silly have a drinkā. It is easier to tell people you are t total then they just go OK. But tell them you drink but you just donāt want to tonight and they look at you like you are an alien !!

Itās true! We have so much information abou the health benefits of moderate drinking, yet people often have an all-or-nothing view. I wonder why??
The one ājunk foodā I keep lying around is ice cream. I donāt portion well, so I eat a pint at a sitting to satisfy any craving that trumps discipline. I self-regulate by only buying Haagen-Daz or Ben & Jerryās @ $3/pint or less.
Recently, the sales have been so good that I confess I have 6 pints of Haagen-Daz and 4 pints of Ben & Jerryās sitting in the freezer. I just hope that I donāt get to the supermarket again before the current $2.50/pint sale endsā¦

Let me know when you polish off your third pint in an hour. Fortunately, I broke this habit last year.

Interesting. I have a hodge-podge of different ice creams because I buy one and have a bowl. Then another, and so on over the course of many months.
They end up going bad before I ever get back to them, because no one else in the house likes any of mine.
By product of habits from growing up poor -food never has time to go bad lol.
The issue with ice cream would be making sure no one hogged more than their fair share!

I developed a coke addiction over the last month. NOT the DRUG. The DRINK. I have no idea why.

Itās a āFreudian slipā.
You are blessed with a highly evolved survival mechanism that has cleverly fooled your conscious self into believing that it is the drink that you crave, when in reality it is the drug that you need. Because the world makes you want to tell people to say hello to your little friend.
I confess I could just be projectingā¦
