How does /fit/ live without beer? I want to get shredded but life without a cold beer after work is too depressing to contemplate.
Have you tried not being a degenerate?
one or two beers a day won't hurt you, getting blasted once a week won't either
Just count the calories and incorporate them in your diet. Should be tine.
>>35202142
I just don't drink alcohol, it's not an active thing or something, as I'm not an alcoholic. Must suck.

>drinking bottled piss
I will never understand how it's even possible for people to enjoy that bland, unhealthy shit. Is it some weird mental thing where people force themselves to do something until they delude themselves into liking it, just because other people are doing it? And then the circle goes on, like it has been going on since the times when beer was actually healthier to drink than water?

So when your friends invite you down to a bar you just sit there and drink coke?
>>35202186
Yes, I just drink water instead of beer. I don't have friends that give a shit what I drink. If your social life seriously depends on drinking beer every day, then you might want to reevaluate your lifestyle.
Also, I'm not 19, so I don't really do the whole "Let's get wasted!!!"-thing any longer. As I never liked the way alcohol affects me, I thought a few years ago, that I might just as well leave it out altogether. It's honestly a pretty stupid thing to do anyway.
>>35202217
What kind of beers have you tried? The variety of styles is insane. You could easily find one you'd enjoy.

I don't. ALAIFYM it's fine.
>>35202238
>If your social life seriously depends on drinking beer every day
No-one is saying you need to go out and drink every day but if you're out with your friends and don't enjoy a few beers you're kind of a weirdo.
>>35202217
>if things aren't sweet, they are gross.
you take all the flavor of grains and hops, and concentrate it. then remove the sweetness and replace it with alcohol.
shit is fucking delicious.
>>35202142
Drink Spirits?
Look at the caloric content of beer compared to Vodka for example.
I have a m8s 21st tomorrow and even I know tht it's not worth being sober at a party and I havnt drunk alcohol in almost 2 years.
That's why I'm bringing my own bottle of vodka and staying away from beer. Plus I can't even down a whole beer because the taste is just shit.
>>35202233
None of us are socially handicapped enough to drink in the first place. Might have a couple glasses of wine during our New Years DnD sesh.

You don't need to be black out drunk to have a good time. There is a difference between being inebriated and lowering inhibitions to appropriate levels and ending up throwing up your guts while you lay face down in a pool of sick.
Moderation is key, man.
>>35202276
DnD is fucking autistic, you're in denial if you disagree, and you're a faggot.
>>35202284

>>35202253
That's just your own insecurity. If my friends really persisted that I pour down something that I don't like and that has no benefits at all down my throat, then they are shit friends and I just might as well dump them. I'm not that desperate for social interaction that I need to do everything to cling on everyone who feels like talking to me. But I honestly never needed to explain myself, I just say "I don't like it" or something, and it's fine. One of my friends had serious problems with alcoholism in his youth, and he doesn't drink either, and believe me, if you pull the "Come on, it's just a beer!"-phrase on him, he's gonna hit you in the face.
Societal alcoholism is a really awful thing. I don't want to be part of that, I don't want to be a little marionette who gives in to peer pressure that easily. I do what I like and I honestly don't like alcohol. That's all there is to it.

How? Me and my friends just hang out and play a game for a couple hours once a week. What should we do instead?
>>35202312
At least I have friends, bro.
>>35202305
If you gave it a chance you would probably enjoy it man. Sure 80%+ of the people who do play are probably Neckbeards but it's not a place for festering autism like you assume.
>>35202324
That's fine if true, but judging from the way you've worded your post it seems like you're just an edgy kid going through a phase
>>35202321

It's too easy for ONE asshole to kill the game with his bitchiness. "w-w-why didn't you go with any of the plans I suggested. me? I'm making this personal? YOU GUYS WERE DICKS FOR NOT blahblahblah"
It especially sucks when this bitch lifts too and is tall
I find it tough. It doesn't fit my cutting macros ever, so I only have it every two or three weeks on a cheat day. I really love beer, cheap beer, fancy beer, chain beer, craft beer, it's the only thing that I wish I could consume that I can't because of my diet.

>>35202366
Hah MTG, nah man I dont and I think you mean Neckbeards: The Gathering.
I known replying to bait but honestly I couldn't care less. Both have their fair share of autismoes but your missing the point that normal functioning people can enjoy DnD and it's variations.
>>35202217
Adaptive taste anon. A lot of people don't like olives and coffee when they first try it either. Doesn't mean you are forcing yourself to drink it to "fit in". I personally detested it, so I didn't drink it. Tried it again a few years later and thought it was pretty okay. Started drinking a few now and then, until I started to really enjoy the taste.
People who are so afraid of things like beer make me laugh. You're a funny guy anon.
>>35202142
>How does /fit/ live without beer?
I'm not an alcoholic
If you have to ask then you must not care too much about the alcohol. I suggest switching to diet cola.
>>35202353
They dont in most countries. Who the fuck goes out for drinks and then demands a free tap water. Yeah it's free if you want to take some medicine or want one with your whisky/wine for some reason, but if you're solely there to drink water, you pay.
>>35202324
If this is bait, it's pretty damn good bait.

>>35202381
Nah man, plenty of us 'normies' do play.
In fact, I'd say playing such a game shows you have a functioning brain capable of using its imagination.
I'd still reccomend you actually go and play it to prove the stereotype wrong... Unless you yourself are a kissless Neckbeard virgin...
>>35202401
All places that serve alcohol need to offer free water on demand here. Do you live in some kind of shithole? I've never heard of a first world country that allows businesses to charge for a glass of tap water
>>35202324
You seem legit autistic.
Not that you are wrong in what you're saying, but the way you deal with it all is screaming autism.

Yeah that's not normal m8
>>35202324
>I'm not that desperate for social interaction
in another words, you're that guy that goes out with a lot of friends and don't talk a word all night
>>35202401
Maybe as a way to keep hydrated as most alcohol dehydrates you?
Maybe because some beers leaves a bad aftertaste?
Maybe because it helps you sober up a bit easier?
And I doubt that you would drink and take meds... Actually no, I know plenty of people haha
>>35202420
Well there is Nestlé

Fucking hell, I know I shouldn't be surprised at this level of autism from /fit/ by now, but christ
>>35202420
I live in The Netherlands and if you are just chilling at some place, you're still occupying space of paying customers and requesting service. These places don't offer a civil duty, they are buisinesses and need to run. A lot of bars still serve you free tap water if you ask, but it's not polite to ask and is frowned upon. Usually you just pay the fucking 2 euro. Why the fuck would you go out to drink but refuse to pay the people who are servicing you? You're just a rude cunt m8.
>>35202228
>If you're over 18 and don't drink beer you're pathetic
If you're over 18 and don't drink properly brewed beer instead of synthetic shite you're pathetic.
For me it taste like a sour soda. I cant stand its flavor
And why do i have to "find" a beer that taste good for me? is not like is healthy, i dont have anything against people who drink it, but i dont like how people want you to like it and then proceed to talk shit about other people doing the same thing about their hobby/what they like.
>>35202420
>>35202438
I was not talking about a guy who just had 10 beers and wants to sober up. I'm talking about a guy who solely drinks water the entire evening.
>>35202164
the getting blasted once probably does but once or two beer nah, same with wine really
>>35202233
I drink Coke, my friends don't give a shit, no one does. I'm still confident, and it's a lot easier to pick up women and tell jokes when you're sober and everyone else is wasted.
If you have to drink every time you go out to a bar you clearly have to adhere to the group's mentality rather than your own.
>>35202453
>I live in The Netherlands
So a shithole then. Thank god I live in the anglosphere
>>35202401
You musnt drink if you don't understand the difference between Tap Water and what "Water On Tap" means.
>>35202451
>>35202408
Oh no, some neckbeard on the internet thinks I'm an autist!
>>35202433
It literally never happened to me in my life. And I don't need to officially announce my retreat from a friendship (do you think this is how friendships work? You called me autistic?). I just don't hang out with them and they get it. Maybe it's because I'm not going to high school any longer, but I just never met anyone who seriously questioned the reasons why I don't drink alcohol. Nobody cares, and really, nobody should. If someone really thinks it's a problem to them, so be it, you don't need to be friends with everyone. It's probably even better that way.
>>35202381
Idk man. I get together with friends and drink beer and eat food while playing a game. What makes that so autistic? Others do the same, but with sports
>>35202481
Yeah, definitely bait or autistic.
>And I don't need to officially announce my retreat from a friendship (do you think this is how friendships work? You called me autistic?).
It wasn't an example of the exact conversation that would take place you autist.

Pretty high quality of life here m8. Where are you from then, that doesn't constitue as "shithole"? I'm pretty curious.
>>35202453
Well in Australia all pubs and clubs supply water on tap for free and it's never frowned upon. I'd say that's because the course you need to serve alcohol doesn't run like a business and probably because most of us Aussies arnt cunts and know how to drink (considering we have the worst drinking cultures in the southern hemisphere, if not the world.)
>>35202506
Australia. Like I said, it's mandated by law that any business that serves alcohol must provide free water and it works well. Paying for tap water is fucking retarded and literally no-one goes to a pub just to drink water, that's a strawman you invented to defend your terrible countries insane practice with charging customers for a resource that is essentially free
>>35202142
If weed is legal where you live, try that.
>has no calories
>makes you eat any food (meaning healthy food you usually won't eat)
>won't give you a hangover
>even if you do too much, it won't affect your next-day training.
>>35202459
Those people have reasons to drink water.
Personally, I'd say they arnt doing it right (going to a club and only drinking water) but I know people who can be the star of the night without needing to drink.
But I don't see a problem other than they are missing out on having a good time
>>35202525
You don't pay for tap water, you order a regular bottled water. You cam get tap water if you're a paying customer, but if you come to a bar and only drink tap water all night (thus not spending a dime), you're a rude cunt and most buisinesses will either refuse or remark on it after the third order.
They still need to invest time in you (taking orders, service the drink, do the dishes) and it's just rude to expect that all for free. The entire situation changes if you're already a paying customer.
>>35202142
try developing a drinking problem that lasts for about 6 years.
I'm not talking about your average guy that drinks alot on the weekend and clames " huurr duur im an alocoholic " I'm talking drinks alone in his house 6-7 days a week.

You're the insecure one m8. I know exactly what is wrong with you from just conversing with you through a Bolivian stone collectors forum. You're autistic. It's why you get so many responses. You might not realise, but you're responding in a stupid manner and people aren laughing at it. I'm just trying to help here family. Better just stop posting if you don't want to be ridiculed.
>>35202545
His actual behaviour isn't the giveaway, it's how he's phrasing his posts. He sounds like a shut in attempting to describe how actual social interaction works without any experience, it's bizarre.

Alright, let's actually try to re-rail the thread...
As was already mentioned, you could try spirits.
Someone also mentioned only having a few instead of a binge may help.
If its the alcoholic content you are worried about, perhaps try a non-alcoholic alternative.
If you're worried about the higher calorie beers, try a low-calorie alternative?
>>35202453

You're afraid of being autistic. There's no problem buying a lot of alcohol and then demanding free water.
But you're from the Netherlands you faggot, the one place in the world where social interaction if frowned upon. I bet you haven't physically touched another human being in over 5 years.

Culturally we're pretty used to alcohol, but if you have a hard time imagining not drinking on a night out, that's already alcoholism, even though you won't admit it. People don't realize how much they depend on that substance and how much they stress their bodies by getting wasted.
>>35202142
i vaporize weed every single day after my workout. (sometimes even before but only when i do easy stuff for example light weight many reps with isolation exercises).
weed helps with eating protein and it relaxes the muscles. and if you vaporize it you don't lose the lung capacity.

I never really noticed a few beers here or there affecting my gains that much. I stopped drinking because it was wrecking my GI system (I have ulcerative colitis). Instead, I just smoke weed and then shit like a champ the next day.
Still enjoy a good wheat beer or lager every now and then, not sure how people drink more than one IPA in an evening, I get sick of the bitterness pretty quickly.

This very true. I never thought it was a big deal ...until it happened to my friends and me. We got one friend that was drinking milk or water while we all had beers or cocktails in our DnD game.. EVEN DURING A D&D GAME we thought it was strange.
Don't be that guy.

the bitterness comes from the hops. if you don't like it, get a malt-based beer instead, should be caramely sweet... most people find the taste of hops to be incredibly delicious.
alcohol is not bitter.
