I should just smack you right now.
Can't stand the heat... mate! You wanna take this outside!

Just for the records, I honestly hate beer. Such a bad tasting drink including Australian beer. Vodka's where it's at!

Alocohol is bad for you. If your not addicted to it then it's killing your liver. If it's not killing your liver then it's making you fat and unhealthy and dehydrated, if it's not doing that then it's making you smell and be gross. If it's not making you smell and be gross then you're not drinking it.

There is no good reason to drink alcohol. It's gross and stupid. We should all try to be healthy like monodiabloloco and not drink alcohol or eat meat and blahlbahlbalhbalhblahlbalhlbahlbalhlblahlbllhlahab. (I don't like alcohol, all I've ever seen it do is ruin peoples lives or at least get them in trouble. I don't see what good it could possibly do anyways besides the antioxidents you gain from a glass of wine a day.)

Sorry, I like something that has a taste other than horse urine.
Stella Artois for relaxing, Guinness for nights out, and a wee nip of the Scottish Whisky.

LIFE is bad for you. (It always ends in death). Alcohol is good, IN MODERATION, because it allows you to restore your willingness to get on with life.

Alcohol won't kill your liver unless you are too low on fluids, and then you're killing yourself anyway. The liver reacts in the same way as when you drink caffeine, another diluriant.
It doesn't make you fat, unhealthy and dehydrated unless you let it. Calories, health and water levels can be kept in check easily.
Alcohol really doesn't make you smell, apart from your breath and garlic does that; however, it does make you gross, and that's fun at times.

Now, calling alcohol gross and stupid seems very strange.

Finally, monodiabloloco describes Paris Hilton's head popping as "hot"; so I'll stick to my booze, thank you.

[Moderation is the key. I have also seen people's lives ruined by drugs, alcohol, glue and many other very nasty things. That doesn't mean the items themselves are wrong.]

actually that's wrong on many levels
there's nothing it it to make you fat, you get fat cause you often pig out while drunk
doesn't kill your liver, in excess maybe but that's more lack of a good diet
it doesn't make you smell, sure your breath might but not showering makes you smell worse, it's actually sweat collecting on your hair and rotting that creates the odour


as for the "ruining" ppl's lives thing, that is complete and utter bull. THEY chose to do that, THEY didn't want to stop, THEY aren't taking responsibility for their own actions

booze doesn't force you to drink, you put the glass up to your mouth and repeat it over and over, there's no gun pointed at your head forcing you to drink

also the health benefits of an glass or two of beer/wine far out weighs anything bad it can cause

Well my biased opinion is obviously... biased...
And maybe ONE glass of wine a day is not bad for you, but it's not some elixir of life, there are better things for you to be consuming out there.

No matter how much you like alcohol or what your views on alcoholism are or even how little you drink of it; it is healthier to not drink alcohol then it is to drink alcohol.

Most people don't understand that it's alright to eat the things that everyone is saying is bad for you. You can have a slice of cheesecake every now and then but you need to keep it proportional. You can't go and just cut something out of your eating life style. I know weight watchers was corny when they said it but diets DON'T work. with the diet frame of mind you think this is all going to end one day..well its not. if it did you'd jump right back up to your weight now. You need to stop eating too much at one sitting. You need to completely change the way that you eat...forever.

If you take the time to measure out your food intake you will be surprised how fast you lose weight. Either go by the 2500 calories a day or 20-25 grams of fat a day. Whatever works best for you. Don't bring junk food/treats into the house. Instead if you want ice cream walk to the nearest ice cream shop with your girlfriend and pick up a little something. Don't bring temptation into the house to even start with. Don't drink pop, even diet pop. You will amazed how fast you lose weight there. You don't have to work out religiously. Just make sure you burn close to 500 calories a day. If you lose 500 Cal's a day for a week you will lose one pound. That means you have to not only keep track of what you eat but what you lose as well. Don't be afraid to write everything down. It will only help you in the long run. Make a goal for yourself to walk like 50 miles by the end of the month. Find a local park trail that is measured for you and walk it every night with your sweetie. You don't have to make it a pure work out, you can enjoy your self too. You will need to do some cardio as well just for good measure. People who never really move themselves don't realized how much just walking a mile everyday will help improve their over all health.

So you don't have to give up the foods you love, just don't over love them at one time. Learn proportions and you will be perfectly fine. Remember losing weight is a life long thing, not just a simple 6 month diet. Also you need a liquid measuring cup for liquids and a set of dry measuring cup for, yep yep, dry items. The amounts are different and I'm surprised to find how many people don't know that. Good luck and remember your not alone in this. If you slip up don't let it get you down, just keep going. You can't let a slip up make you give up on something your working so hard for.

YEAH, SON! Tell 'em!
lol. Really though, I am an alcoholic, my dad was an alcoholic though it was smoking that killed him, and my mom is a non drinking alcoholic. I am familiar with the bad side of alcohol. I still loves my beer. I just choose not to let it take me over. I drink when I want to, not in those times I feel like I need to. I agree with your anti alcohol stance when it involves those who can't control their own urges, or behave poorly when in their cups, Zeriercahl, but I must say that those people would find some other outlet to be asshats if it wasn't the booze. Drugs of other sorts abound. Also, there is religion. A great many of the bible thumping nut jobs in the world are reformed alcoholics, or abstain altogether.

On an update sort of note, I have lost 20 lbs! w00t! I went from a size 46 to a 40 and feel tons better.

You said you wanted improve you fitness and diet.
Parkour offers good exercise if your interested in that
