How do I quit this gains destroyer?
stop drinking.
>>36936812
Don't drink any.
Good luck, I got a felony from getting my car stuck in the dirt by a railroad. That pissed me off enough to stop drinking.
>>36936880
Pretty much this.
We alcys drink until we die or something really bad happens because of it.
>>36936812
Drink liquor and don't get more buzzed than you'd get when drinking beer otherwise it's counter productive
and drink on special occasions mostly, not every day
Just stop lying to your self, and accept the fact that no one actually likes beer
>>36936812
How do you do anything?
>>36936812
You part ways with the weak little bitch who keeps putting it in you.
>>36936812
the day you start drinking alone is the day you've got a drinking problem mate.
drink socially
the easiest way for me was to ease into it. started by not doing it during the day, then you limit what nights you can do it, then you limit how many you can have and keep putting restrictions on it and eventually it just isnt worth it do it or you forget how wonderful it is.
>>36937081
I've been drinking alone for about 5 years.
I'm not drowning in friends right now.
So...yeah.
>>36936812

Drink Liquor instead
>>36936812
Switch to vodka or whiskey. Beer has more calories per the same amount of alcohol
>>36937081
Gtfo I buy 2 tall cans every pay check to treat myself. I dont get the shakes and need 4 shots to function in the morning.
And OP you're not destroying any gains unless you're drinking a multiple 6 packs throughout the day. Have some discipline jesus.
>>36937107
everyone goes through some dark times mate. hang in there
>>36937081
i disagree with that, some people do better alone than with others, introverts and all. however i do think it CAN be a sign, but not necessarily for everyone
>>36937145
>phew, just made my diet last a whole month! lets celebrate with a couple of doughnuts!! Fuck off, im not fat, i just like doughnuts
You wait for the weather to get colder.
post breakup drank for 8 mos straight everyday while lifting. atleast 10-12 beer a night.
finally got tired of it. bought $150 worth of painkillers to help get thru the DTs and to get to sleep and just dropped the bottle like that. was a great investment. on month two now of solid non alcohol inspired gains. the feeling alone of waking up without a hangover wveryday made it worth it, the extra money and knowing my time in the gym isnt wasted are just bonuses.
gl dude
First off we had a thread on this last night.
>Beer is bad for men due to the phytoestrogens
>Liquor is godtier and fine to drink
Just switch over to vodka or whiskey.
Also don't drink as much. I drink alone but it's very rarely more than 1-2 drinks worth.
>>36937170
Literally nothing wrong with that especially when youre eating them once a month.
>>36936812
Get a life, priorities, or some higher reason to not get wasted.
>>36937219
>phytoestrogens
GTFO with this fucking bullshit bro science.

Why does /fit/ insist on regurgitating baseless claims when there are literally mounds of peer reviewed journals saying the opposite?
Also, if you feel the need to stop ingesting phytoestrogens, enjoy not consuming any of the following in addition to beer:
-Soybeans and soy products
-Tempeh
-Linseed (flax)
-Sesame seeds
-Wheatberries
-Fenugreek.
-Oats
-Barley
-Beans
-Lentils
-Yams
-Rice
-Alfalfa
-Mung beans
-Apples
-Carrots
-Pomegranates
-Wheat germ
-Rice bran
-Lupin
-Kudzu
-Coffee
-Licorice root
-Mint
-Ginseng
-bourbon
-Fennel
-Anise
Red clover (sometimes a constituent of green
>>36936812
Limit yourself to a six-pack per week. Don't go ,ore than 3 days in a row with a beer. Drink low alcohol shit instead of high calorie imperial stouts and IPAs.
You could drink pints of sub 4.0% shit and be fine.
If you want to get drunk, drink liquor instead.

Do you know how many hops you would need to eat for it to have a noticeable effect on your hormones?
An inhuman amount.
If you didn't have a problem, you wouldn't post or ask "how do I quit".
Only an alchy would sit around wondering if they are an alchy,
>>36937081
I did that all the time in undergrad
Only way to make going to classes outside my major enjoyable
>>36936812
I used to drink until i was drunk every night just because i liked it. Then i got depression and even one drink made me want to kill myself so now iam sober 4 years.

It depends on how badly you're hooked.

Next time you think about having a drink, don't.
>>36937145
Dude. You're an alcoholic. Your post is super defensive and dismissive. You sound exactly like my brother befor he started going to AA.
>>36937850
This. Having 2-3 beers a week won't do anything as long as you plan them into your diet.
The brewers droop is an exaggeration. Will working in a hop field, cutting raw hops with your bare hands all day for years fuck with you? Sure. It will also give women big tits that lactate (Brewer's wives were often employed as wet nurses for the wealthy).
Will drinking beer, especially in moderation, do anything? No.
>>36936812
drink water instead when you go to bars

Stupid
I drink once a month at college bars cause it's cheap, has nice environment, fun place to chill, and cute girls.
I don't drink till I pass out or can't even walk. Last time was just because my comp broke and I loved the goddamn thing.
If you offered me a million dollar to finish a glass of beer, I couldn't do it.
I don't know what it is with me, but the amount of rejection my body has for beer is incredible - I literally puke from tasting small bits.
(I'm 21)
Every time you don't drink for a day, reward yourself with a drink
>tfw justifying buying weed with "it's 0 nutrients, better than alcohol" and i instead end up skipping gym days, overeating junk food, and sitting like a dumb ass zombie looking at shitty websites for a week and feeling my intelligence melting away
Fuck this brahs I'm just gonna be sober with the exception of the rare social event that calls for a few beers.
>>36938840
you could just be allergic

good luck anon
Switch to heroin.

>>36936812
Hey OP, I'm an alco.
Let me give you THREE pieces of advice from someone who's tried everything and finally figuring it out.
1.) The biggest lie an addict can tell themselves is that they'll be fine if they can just cut back and enjoy it in moderation.
Well you are here asking how to quit, so you've obviously tried that road and it didn't work out. You're not alone. It rarely ever works for anyone. You have to full-on quit.
2.) If you go into a barbershop every day, eventually you're going to get a haircut.
That means stop going to the bar, stop buying liquor/beer for the house, and stop hanging out with drinkers when they're doing nothing except drinking. Sorry, but removing 90% of the temptation does most of the work for you.
3.) Literally EVERYTHING about your life will be improved when you stop drinking... usually within a few days. Better breath, more money, better sleep, better hormones, nicer skin, nicer eyes, better blood pressure, less fat, clearer thoughts, better work/school performance. EVERYTHING.
If you have anxiety or triggers that make you want to drink, then find a different approach to coping with them. Alcohol might work, but it comes with a bunch of side shit that fucks you over in the long term. There are other answers to your problems/triggers that can fix them without Alcohol. Just ask someone.
Best of luck to you!
>>36937081
I've been mostly drinking alone since I turned twenty one last year. When I'm with people I prefer to be sober, or if drinking is obligated then to have a pint and stop. Is that bad? I just find it more enjoyable to play some games or read while drinking.

Dark beers are god-tier, but everyone I know only drinks hard lemonade or cider cause they think all beers are garbage

This is the most pussy thing anyone has ever said

>>36938169
2 drinks every 2 weeks is not a problem. Why would you coax him into going there?
>>36938711
It was an example dude as i dont get withdrawal shakes and dont need 4 shots to function. Shit I cant even buy a bottle right now if I wanted.
>>36938837
Drinking alone to get over the loss of your computer? Lol it keeps getting worse.

He went on his own. We were all surprised to find out he had a drinking problem because he drank alone.

What does heroin feel like?
>>36939345
>not slamming a beer before and after lifting
Beer is the new whey anon, haven't you heard?
like what a lot of people are saying: a few beers a week is fine as long as you're fitting it into your diet. the biggest problem I've noticed, being a recent college grad, is that many of my friends still love drinking almost everyday and are hooked on the micro brew craze (I live in Portland). everyone thinks it's cool to be drinking this or what IPA or IIPA or whatever the fuck. watching all my friends over the last couple years just get fatter and fatter is funny as fuck. When we go out on a friday/saturday I don't even drink beer -- just a two straight shots of tequila for the whole night and I'm good. Can't handle the hangovers anymore anyways.
>>36936812
keep drinking until you kill yourself. we need to weed out people with no ability to control their own actions
>>36939345
I'll slam your tight boipucci before going to the gym. Also:
>implying one beer makes me feel anything

If you want to get specific I love American West Coast IPAs. Currently having one now.

You fucking piece of shit. I'd like to knock your block off
replace it with liquor, reduce dietary fat intake on drinking days, don't drink in excess, and be good enough at drinking to not let it make you binge eat.
>>36936812
Resolve your emotional issues, bro
>>36937081
I've been drinking alone since I tasted alcohol for the first time
>>36936812
Bro they have beer with protein in it just do your research there's a decent tasting one too for around 24g of protein at around 300 calories.
Keep the drinking to 2007scape
>>36939345
what's the point? it's not like you're gonna feel anything unless you're a 100lbs woman

Fuck brehs. Make drinking your reward after a hard time of dedication. Makes it feel better

Drink spirits instead.

I love those imperial stouts, but they are possibly THE most destructive beer for me.
Had a bottle of wine Sunday. Do everything week, usually more. Don't give AF. Feels good and I'm still losing weight on a cut. I drink once a week and have however much I want. It's called discipline lads.
