Weed, video games, over eating.
that list used to include drinking alcohol, but I've been clean from that for like 7 or 8 years.
When life is going well, I don't overeat over-game, or smoke weed much. But then holiday season descends upon my life and I'm left with a feeling of "hunker down and survive." and in so doing, I go back to my comforts of weed, video games, and over-eating.
C'est la vie. I gain and lose 20lbs every year it seems.
Congrats, ditching alcohol is no small feat. Ditching (most) sugars would be my personal equivalent, but it doesn't even feel like a realistic goal most days.
