What is your biggest vice?

What is the one thing you cannot or will not ever give up?

Mine is fairly typical and it's coffee. I never drink more than 2 cups per day but I would rather give up desserts, alcohol, sweets, pizza, TV, Facebook and my mobile phone than give up coffee! Once I tried to replace coffee with herbal tea on advice from my doctor (apparently caffeine and anxiety don't mix well) but only lasted 2 weeks. I figure a little dose of daily caffeine is better than constant headaches and irritability! My favourite is a long macchiato, still has the volume of a latte but less calories.

What fun is life without at least one little vice... what's yours?

    Where to begin. There is so much I would never give up. Too many sensations, too many indulgences.
    If anyone has ever seen Futurama, when it comes to food I'm like that Hedonism-bot that they have.
    Fried calamari, fried chicken, teriyaki chicken with sushi and rice, steak...the list goes on.

    Not that any of that matters, I pretty much have to control myself around those foods. Or at the very least, avoid them and binging for as long as possible.

    But it's better to be a hot, fit hedonist than it is to be an overweight one. So suffer now, and smile later.

    I have one particular hangup. Hard to understand or discuss.

    But really, Barro's Buffalo Chicken Pizza.

    I can eat a whole large. Soooo buttery and spicy.

    Biggest vice? Maybe procrastination. Maybe distractability; I'm working on that but never hard enough. OK, here I am at quarter to 1 am, meant to be in bed by 12:30 and I'm playing on the Chit-Chat, Fun, and Games message board when I still haven't finished even a little bit of the cleanup I meant to do tonight. Thanks for "waking me up", and GOOD NIGHT.

    Bread. I always say "I'll just keep a loaf in the freezer for when I'm really short on time" and end up eating it twice a day. Grrr! Just can't have it in the house =(

    Being 23 I'm still quite fond of drinking during the weekends, and I like to feel a little wobbly. (Always have a DD/taxi of course) So I would definitely say the booze are my biggest vice.

    Pineapples. The one food I find it difficult to control myself with. Honestly I could probably eat an entire pineapple in one sitting. That's why I only ever buy it in small doses.

    There are lots of things I wouldn't give up, but imagining a life without bread or cheese is just soooo bleak.

    Fatty, or sugary food. Anything with comfort feeling in it. And my other vice, smoking, yup I love a good cigar or cigarette but I try not buy them anymore, just when I am stressed or am drinking which isn't often. Another vice is falling love with the wrong guy. So many vices

    Pizza. I can't just have one slice. I can give up and control everything else: sugar, coffee, chips, chocolate, but set pizza in front of me and I become possessed. Sigh. It doesn't even help if I tell myself, "It's not like you will never find a slice of pizza again..." My brain disagrees. :ohwell:

    +1 Even have a hard time finding stuff that is hot enough and has enough flavor, so the hubs and I make our own :happy:
